Like their predecessors, and like their male counterparts, most
women philosophers of the 20th century have significant expertise
in several specialities. Moreover, their work represents the gamut
of 20th century philosophy's interests in moral pragmatism, logical
positivism, philosophy of mathematics, of psychology, and of mind.
Their writings include feminist philosophy, classical moral theory
reevaluated in light of Kant, Mill, and the 19th century feminist
and abolitionist movements, and issues in logic and perception.
Included in the fourth volume of the series are discussions of L.
Susan Stebbing, Edith Stein, Hedwig Conrad Martius, Simone de
Beauvoir, Simone Weil, Mary Whiton Calkins, Gerda Walther, and
others. While pre-20th century women philosophers were usually
self-educated, those of the 20th century had greater access to
academic preparation in philosophy. Yet, for all the advances made
by women philosophers over two and a half millennia, the
philosophers discussed in this volume were sometimes excluded from
full participation in academic life, and sometimes denied full
professional academic status.
