  text: "This collection of essays presents new work on women’s contribution to philosophy
    between the Renaissance and the mid-eighteenth century. They bring a new perspective
    to the history of philosophy, by highlighting women’s contributions to philosophy
    and testifying to the rich history of women’s thought in this period.\r\n\r\nBy
    showing that women were active in many branches of philosophy (metaphysics, science,
    political philosophy cosmology, ontology, epistemology) the book testifies to
    the rich history of women’s thought across Europe in this period. The scope of
    the collection is international, both in terms of the philosophers represented
    and the contributors themselves from Britain and North America, but also from
    continental Europe and from as far afield as Australia and Brazil. The philosophers
    discussed here include both figures who have recently come to be better known
    (Elisabeth of Bohemia, Anne Conway, Mary Astell, Catharine Trotter Cockburn, Emilie
    du Châtelet), and less familiar figures (Moderata Fonte, Lucrezia Marinella Arcangela
    Tarabotti, Tullia d’Aragona, Madame Deshoulières, Madame de Sablé, Angélique de
    Saint-Jean Arnauld d’Andilly, Olivia Sabuco, Susanna Newcome).\r\n\r\nThe chapters
    in this book were originally published as a special issue of the British Journal
    for the History of Philosophy."

  text: Of the many outstanding female philosophers of the European Enlightenment,
    Emilie Du Châtelet excelled as a physicist, a philosopher, and a mathematician,
    as well as a Bible critic. She was famous in her lifetime and was not completely
    forgotten thereafter. Among her admirers, correspondents and friends were the
    most acknowledged scholars of her time, including Voltaire, Clairault, Maupertuis,
    Diderot, Helvetius, La Mettrie, Buffon, Christian Wolff, Leonard Euler, and Johann
    II Bernoulli. Her philosophical work enjoyed high reputation and her opus magnum,
    the Institutions physiques, was translated into Italian and German and proved
    her to be an intellectual of European stature. Its defense of living forces and
    its implied forecast into dynamics as well as her methodological grounding of
    scientific knowledge as hypothetical, impacted philosophy and science. Reality
    must by nature escape us. What we perceive are phenomena. Du Châtelet explains
    the function of space and time to trace us back to the origin of phenomena. Her
    influence on Kant is evident. Next to her writings in physics, mathematics, philosophy,
    language, and logic, she contributed to morality and ethics. Du Châtelet left
    an opus of quite systematic breadth. This impressive publishing activity excels
    in the amount of its scientific and philosophical production to which a vast collection
    of manuscripts must be added.She argued against prejudice and idolatry in philosophy
    and science. Science is a cooperative undertaking over history and beyond nations.
    Her moral writings align with ideas of the French materialists. Du Châtelet translated
    and commented on Newton’s Principia, preparing thus the fertile soil of the generation
    of physicists to come in France.

  text: 'Die Philosophiegeschichte, die heute gelehrt wird präsentiert sich als ein
    Kanon, der von "großen Männern" dominiert wird. Doch das ist nicht richtig und
    vor allem, es war nicht immer so. Es gab großartige und einflussreiche Denkerinnen,
    von Hildegard von Bingen bis Hannah Arendt und Edith Stein, "in allen Ländern
    und zu allen Zeiten", wie der aufgeklärte Historiograph Jakob Brucker 1745 in
    seiner Philosophiegeschichte schrieb. '
