  text: n 1789, Eberhard repudiated Kant’s claim expressed in the first edition of
    his Critique of Pure Reason to have delivered a new, namely transcendental turn
    in philosophy, as he was able to retrace our cognition to the origin of phenomena
    instead of delivering a “merely logical deduction”. Eberhard holds that there
    was nothing new, but all delivered in Leibniz and Wolff; to prove his claim he
    refers to a quote from Du Châtelet, taken from a paragraph where she determines
    the right understanding as to be able “to penetrate to the origin of phenomena”.
    This paper brings Du Châtelet into discourse with Kant via this Eberhard quote.
    In its first part, it investigates the use of her quote in the Kant-Eberhard controversy.
    The second part serves to ground the quote in Du Châtelet’s epistemology. It lays
    out how to understand Du Châtelet’s claim to penetrate to the origin of phenomena.
    Du Châtelet’s claim to have renewed philosophy must be taken seriously, and it
    is helpful for rethinking the German philosophical development from the rationalists
    to Kant through including Du Châtelet’s theory of cognition.

  text: The Enlightenment is well known for its critical analysis of the Bible. Though
    the Renaissance sources have been acknowledged as an inspiration of this movement,
    the Querelle des Femmes and its critique of the Bible has never been considered
    as a possible catalyst for the enlightened philosophical discourse. For centuries
    women have fought against interpretations of the Bible.This paper argues that
    the Querelle des Femmes criticized the Bible not only because of its patriarchal
    content but also criticized philosophical thinking that, for supporting the views
    from the Bible and its misogynist stance, misusing the instruments of rational
    philosophy. Arguments from 1400-1750, from Nogarola to Du Châtelet proof women
    philosophers’ fight in favour of a critique of the bible from a rational point
    of view, reflecting also on the status of what it meant, to argue rationally.

  text: 'In diesem Band werden neueste Forschungen zur Physikerin, Mathematikerin
    und Philosophin Emilie Du Châtelet (1706-1749) vorgestellt. Emilie Du Châtelet
    genoss in der deutschen Aufklärung eine hohe Reputation. Sie verband Leibniz Metaphysik
    mit der Physik von Newton und gelangte zu erstaunlichen Ergebnissen, die die Physik
    auf den Weg zu Einsteins Energieformel führte. Ihre Werke wurden sofort ins Deutsche
    übersetzt, Kant nimmt in seiner ersten Dissertation von 1747 auf sie Bezug. Die
    Sammlung stellt Texte vor, die den Einfluss der deutschen Aufklärung auf Du Châtelets
    und Du Châtelets Einfluss auf die deutsche Philosophie diskutieren. Die großen
    Namen der Epoche stehen hier zur Debatte, Leibniz, Wolff, Boskovic, Euler, Friedrich
    II, Voltaire, La Mettrie und viele weitere Größen der Aufklärung werden in ihrem
    Zusammenhang mit Du Châtelet vorgestellt. '

  text: "Abstract · Émilie Du Châtelet (1706-1749), Laura Bassi (1711-1778), and Luise
    Gottsched (1713-1762) were three philosophers and scientists of outstanding im-portance
    in their epoch. However, the attribution of importance and reputation to women’s
    intellectual achievements in this period is a case of its own. This paper investigates
    the methodical attempt of 18th century historiography, presenting the example
    of Jakob Brucker and his Pinacoteca to relocate intellectual women in his history
    of philosophy and science. The relative integration of women into the 18th century
    intellectual sphere is the starting point of this methodical investigation to
    retrace its ‘why and how’.\r\nKeywords : Emilie Du Châtelet, Luise Gottsched,
    Laura Bassi, History, Philoso-phy, Science."
