Brand: Routledge
Description
The Routledge Companion to Feminist Philosophy is an outstanding guide and reference source to the key topics subjects thinkers and debates in feminist philosophy. Fifty-six chapters written by an international team of contributors specifically for the Companion are organized into five sections: (1) Engaging the Past; (2) Mind Body and World; (3) Knowledge Language and Science; (4) Intersections; (5) Ethics Politics and Aesthetics. The volume provides a mutually enriching representation of the several philosophical traditions that contribute to feminist philosophy. It also foregrounds issues of global concern and scope; shows how feminist theory meshes with rich theoretical approaches that start from transgender identities race and ethnicity sexuality disabilities and other axes of identity and oppression; and highlights the interdisciplinarity of feminist philosophy and the ways that it both critiques and contributes to the whole range of subfields within philosophy.
