Contemporary philosophy, often perceived as a domain predominantly male-dominated, is the focus of this book. It seeks to rectify the imbalance by showcasing the remarkable philosophical accomplishments of numerous female figures during the period spanning from 1870 to 1970.
Historians of contemporary philosophy have traditionally presented the field as solely the domain of men, with no notable female contributors. When examining the development of contemporary analytic philosophy, for instance, the focus tends to revolve around figures such as Frege, Russell, and Wittgenstein, with occasional mentions of Moore or the Vienna Circle. These accounts, however, fail to encompass a significant portion of the historical record, particularly the contributions of women.
A comprehensive examination of the historical record reveals a pattern of exclusion that spans various philosophical strands and geographical regions. In the continental tradition, the development of Schopenhauer's philosophy overlooks the significant contributions of women like Olga Plümacher.
The chapters in this book delve into central themes from the perspective of female philosophers, offering a more comprehensive understanding of the philosophy of this period. This volume will serve as a valuable resource for academics, researchers, advanced students of philosophy, as well as individuals with an interest in the contributions of women philosophers. It was originally published in the esteemed British Journal for the History of Philosophy.
