The renaissance of women philosophers: towards an inclusive history of philosophy
Palabras clave:
history of philosophy, women philosophersResumen
In this paper I argue for the importance of the history of philosophy for women philosophers, including feminist philosophers. I review the progress made in recovering women philosophers in recent years, comparing it to the revival of classical philosophy in the European Renaissance (Rinascimento). I then consider some of the challenges to be faced when writing an inclusive history of philosophy, highlighting the problem of alterity in women’s philosophy. I argue that, by virtue of its capacity of addressing alterity and difference, a contextual approach to the history of philosophy is especially productive for recovering women’s philosophy, and is also particularly relevant to the challenges of extending this work of recovery to all philosophical traditions across the world.
