| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2652 Women played an important yet often neglected role in the development of early modern philosophical thought. Despite social barriers, they remained at the center of philosophical conversations by writing influential letters and publishing philosophical novels, plays, and poems, in addition to more standard philosophical genres. This course seeks to revive women's voices from 17th-19th century European philosophy. We will cover various topics (mind/body, education, happiness), with a special focus on early modern feminism.; Pre-requisite(s): One 100-level course in Philosophy Humanities, A: Meaning, Interpretation (Texts) (; Hav: HU, A) |
