The Routledge Handbook of Women and Early Modern European
Philosophy is an outstanding reference source for the wide range of
philosophical contributions made by women writing in Europe from
about 1560 to 1780. It shows the range of genres and methods used
by women writing in these centuries in Europe, thus encouraging an
expanded understanding of our historical canon. Comprising 46
chapters by a team of contributors from all over the globe,
including early career researchers, the Handbook is divided into
the following sections: I. Context II. Themes A. Metaphysics and
Epistemology B. Natural Philosophy C. Moral Philosophy D.
Social-Political Philosophy III. Figures IV. State of the Field The
volume is essential reading for students and researchers in
philosophy who are interested in expanding their understanding of
the richness of our philosophical past, including in order to offer
expanded, more inclusive syllabi for their students. It is also a
valuable resource for those in related fields like gender and
women’s studies; history; literature; sociology; history and
philosophy of science; and political science.
Descartes's Meditations, one of the most influential works in
western philosophy, continues to provoke discussion and debate.
This volume of original essays by leading established and emerging
early modern scholars ranges over all six of the Meditations and
explores issues such as scepticism, judgement, causation, the
nature of meditation and the meditator s relation to God, the
nature of personhood, Descartes theory of sense perception, and his
ideas on the nature of substance. The contributors bring new
insights to both central and less-studied topics in the
Meditations, and connect the work with the rich historical and
intellectual context in which Descartes forged his thought. The
resulting volume will appeal to a wide range of scholars of early
modern thought."
