Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

The first issues of the journal Hypatia, published from 1983 through 1985, truly heralded the rebirth of a feminist philosophy. Women in philosophy had been silenced since the days of the fourth-century Alexandrian woman philosopher and mathematician, Hypatia. With the establishment of the journal by the Society for Women in Philosophy (SWIP), feminist issues and philosophy were legitimized. The first three issues of the journal were actually published as special issues of Women's Studies International Forum. From this unique incubational arrangement, the journal has grown to be a successful independent voice for feminist philosophical concerns. In response to demand, essays from those early, now out-of-print issues are being published in book form as a testament to the rebirth of feminist philosophy.

Contraportada:

'This book offers a collection of serious, fresh, and highly significant essays in the field of philosophy and feminism. This collection traces the contours of a critical feminism that moves beyond the tired divisions of philosophical affiliation and establishes feminist philosophy at the critical forefront of political and social theory.' --Judith Butler
