Description
Historia de las mujeres filósofas is a groundbreaking work by Gilles Ménage, first published in 1690. This comprehensive guide covers the lives and ideas of sixty-five women philosophers who are now largely absent from philosophical texts.
Written as an encyclopedia, Ménage brings to light these forgotten thinkers, moving beyond their roles as wives or companions of notable philosophers to present them as equal contributors to intellectual endeavour. By shedding light on their work, this book restores the voices of silenced women and challenges the tendency for philosophers to overlook their ideas.
Today, these women are rediscovered and reevaluated in their own right, their contributions to philosophy acknowledged and valued.
