Libori Summer School 2025 – Exploring the Early Works of Émilie Du Châtelet

We are excited to announce the Libori Summer School 2025, dedicated to exploring the early works of Émilie Du Châtelet, one of the most influential women in the history of philosophy and science.

Led by Prof. Dr. Ruth Edith Hagengruber and organized by Dr. Jil Muller with the  support of Felix Grewe the  Summer School invites Master’s and PhD students from around the world to engage in a collaborative, in-depth exploration of Du Châtelet’s early writings and intellectual legacy.

This year’s program offers a rare opportunity to engage directly with the first digital and historical-critical edition of Du Châtelet’s early manuscripts—produced in collaboration with the National Library of Russia, Saint Petersburg. These texts, rich with philosophical insight and annotated by Du Châtelet herself, reveal how her thought shaped and was shaped by the major metaphysical debates of her time.
