Aristotle's account of female nature has received mostly negative
treatment, emphasising what he says females cannot do. Building on
recent research, this book comprehensively revises such readings,
setting out the complex and positive role played by the female in
Aristotle's thought with a particular focus on the longest
surviving treatise on reproduction in the ancient corpus, the
Generation of Animals. It provides new interpretations of the
nature of Aristotle's sexism, his theory of male and female
interaction in generation, and his account of inherited features.
It also discusses a range of more general issues which can and
should be re-examined in light of Aristotle's account of female
animals: his methodology, hylomorphism, teleology and psychology.
Aristotle on Female Animals will be valuable to all those
interested in Aristotle's philosophy and the history of gender.
