Description
This volume makes available to English-language readers--in many cases for the first time--the works of nine women philosophers from the German tradition. It showcases their contemporary relevance and their crucial contributions to nineteenth-century philosophical movements. An Editors' Introduction offers a comprehensive overview of the contributions of women philosophers in the Nineteenth Century. Each chapter is furnished with an introduction to the distinctive life and work of the philosopher in questions. The translated texts are accessible and engaging. The translations are furnished with explanatory footnotes. This is a good fit for courses in 19th Century Philosophy which can sometimes be called 19th Century German (or European) Philosophy, as it's very German-heavy. That is a course that is a vast majority of philosophy departments and required for majors. The purpose of the book is to give people texts to use and assign to diversify syllabi in this area since usually it's just about Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, and the like, and no women. For surveys of the History of Philosophy in general, this could also be a core text for people looking to diversify (in terms of gender) their offerings, since 19th Century (German) philosophy is usually such a major part of those courses given the importance of the work that was done then-again this book allows people to diversify their syllabus.
