The early modern philosopher Anne Conway offers a remarkable
synthesis of ideas from differing philosophical traditions that
deserve our attention today. Exploring all of the major aspects of
Conway’s thought, this book presents a valuable guide to her
contribution to the history of philosophy. Through a close reading
of her central text, Principles of the Most Ancient and Modern
Philosophy (1690), it considers her intellectual context and
addresses some of the outstanding interpretive issues concerning
her philosophy. Contrasting her position with that of
contemporaries such as Henry More, Franciscus Mercurius van Helmont
and George Keith, it examines her critique of the prominent
philosophical schools of the time, including Cartesian dualism and
Hobbesian materialism. From her accounts of dualism, time and God
to the often overlooked elements of her work such as her theory of
freedom and salvation, The Philosophy of Anne Conway illuminates
the ideas and legacy of an important early-modern woman
philosopher.
