The Routledge Companion to Feminist Philosophy is an exceptional guide and comprehensive reference source that delves into the core themes, subjects, thinkers, and debates within feminist philosophy. Comprising fifty-six chapters authored by an international team of contributors exclusively for this Companion, the book is structured into five sections: (1) Engaging the Past; (2) Mind, Body, and World; (3) Knowledge, Language, and Science; (4) Intersections; and (5) Ethics, Politics, and Aesthetics. This volume offers a mutually enriching portrayal of the diverse philosophical traditions that contribute to feminist philosophy, while also emphasizing issues of global significance and scope. It demonstrates how feminist theory seamlessly integrates with rich theoretical frameworks that originate from transgender identities, race and ethnicity, sexuality, disabilities, and other axes of identity and oppression. Furthermore, it highlights the interdisciplinary nature of feminist philosophy and its critical and constructive contributions to various subfields within the broader realm of philosophy.
