SUMMARY:Andrea Reichenberger - "On God and Formal Logic"
DESCRIPTION:The Verein für Herforder Geschichte e.V.\, in cooperation with the VHS Herford\, cordially invites you to Dr. Andrea Reichenberger’s talk “On God and Formal Logic” on Elisabeth of Herford’s correspondence with the philosophers of her time. \nElisabeth\, Princess of Herford (1618-1680)\, was a prominent figure in her time as the daughter of the Palatine Elector and Bohemian Winter King Frederick V\, and granddaughter of the English King James I. René Descartes\, with whom Elisabeth had a close friendship\, did not accidentally dedicate his work to her. Elisabeth also had close contacts with Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz\, Anna Maria van Schurman and other scholars. \nIn 2018 Elisabeth von der Pfalz would have celebrate her 400th birthday. This talk will also stimulate the activities planned in Herford. \nSpeaker: Andrea Reichenberger\, Dr. phil\, is a researcher at the Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists at the University of Paderborn. Her research focuses on women’s research in the history of logic\, mathematics and physics. \nContact:\nE-mail: andrea.reichenberger@upb.de\nWebsite: https://independent.academia.edu/AndreaReichenberger

SUMMARY:Between HeForShe and Misogyny
DESCRIPTION:The HeForShe campaign of the UN sets a historical milestone in the fight for gender equality. The inclusion of men and boys in a movement that once began as women’s fight for human rights shows a fundamental change in the mindset of people: gender equality effects everyone and is in the interest of both\, men and women. \nAt the same time\, however\, as seen in the US presidential election campaign with the “Grab them by the pussy” scandal\, those opposed to gender equality initiated a counter movement that tries to undermine the rising solidarity between men and women. As a consequence\, the movement for gender equality is now facing an unprecedented wave of misogyny. \nOn international women’s day students of the project seminar “Philosophische Geschlechtertheorien” at the University Paderborn present this actual clash of the extremes in a panel discussion.

SUMMARY:Andrea Reichenberger - "Luise Lange: Pionierin der Relativitätstheorie"
DESCRIPTION:In the library archive of the Göttingen University\, there is a manuscript on the lecture of the famous mathematician David Hilbert\, titled “Statistical Mechanics” (1914)\, elaborated by Luise Lange (1891-1987). Her name can not be found in dictionaries\, biographies\, bibliographies\, on the Internet\, or in the list of German mathematicians and physicists.\nAndrea Reichenberger will report on her discovery of a remarkable woman and scientist. She follows Luise Lang’s path through Göttingen to New York and Chicago\, from the revolutionary upheavals in physics in the early 20th century to the exciting collaboration between American and Russian mathematicians during the Cold War. Dr. Andrea Reichenberger is a science historian and philosopher of the Paderborn University’s Center for the “History of Women Philosophers and Scientists”. \nSpeaker:\nDr. Andrea Reichenberger\, University of Paderborn

SUMMARY:Sandrine Bergès - "Uneducated Nature and Epistemic Authority: How to Talk about Olympe de Gouges in Philosophy Class"
DESCRIPTION:As part of the project Bridging the Gender Gap through Time: How Women Philosophers of the Past have Contributed to Today’s Thought\, Dr. Sandrine Bergès (Bilkent University) gives a talk on the French female philosopher Olympe de Gouges at King’s College London: “Uneducated nature and epistemic authority: how to talk about Olympe de Gouges in philosophy class”. \nLocation: room SW1.17 (Ante Room)\, Somerset House East Wing\, The Dickson Poon School of Law\, King’s College London\, Strand\, WC2R 2LS. \nUnlike her contemporary Mary Wollstonecraft\, Olympe de Gouges valued nature over education. Nature unimpeded\, she argued\, is always good and can serve as a reliable moral guide even for those who are educated. Education\, on the other hand\, corrupts nature. Gouges made this point both by putting herself forward as an uneducated citizen who benefits society\, and by showing how privileging education over nature resulted in severe injustice being perpetrated and against enslaved African people and women. \nEmphasising the fact that women’s philosophical writing is often to be found in non-traditional genres\, I use a variety of texts from her theatre\, political tracts as well as a philosophical discourse to show how Gouges develops this argument and applied it to topics such as women’s condition and slavery. \nAll are very welcome\, including research students interested in learning more about how to publish on the history of women thinkers.

SUMMARY:Feminist Utopias: Transforming the Present of Philosophy - Historical and Contemporary Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:The Symposion “Feminist Utopias” is hosted by Reykjavik University\, Feminist Philosophy and NSU Study Circle Feminist Philosophy. Keynotes will be delivered by Prof. Alison Jagger\, Assoc. Prof. Kristie Dotson\, Prof. Nancy Bauer\, Prof. Ruth Hagengruber\, and Dr. Willow Verkerk. \nCo-hosted by Feminist Philosophy: Transforming Philosophy at The University of Iceland and NSU Study Circle Feminist Philosophy: Time\, History and the Transformation of Thought\nKeynote speakers:\nAlison Jaggar University of Colorado\, Boulder\nKristie Dotson Michigan State University\nNancy Bauer Tufts University\nRuth Hagengruber University of Paderborn\nWillow Verkerk Kingston University\nTheme of the symposium: \nFeminist Utopias -Transforming the Present of Philosophy\nSome of the most ground-breaking inventions in contemporary philosophy have come from feminist philosophy. More gender-conscious conceptions of humans have modified and enriched traditional philosophical ideas about epistemic\, ethical and political subjects\, and our understanding of the past of philosophy has been improved by recent scholarship on women in the history of philosophy. However\, the transformative potential of feminist philosophy for renewing the discipline in terms of canon\, concepts\, histories\, institutional cultures\, content\, and plurality of styles has not yet been actualized. The feminist utopias envisioned by feminist philosophers across traditional philosophical divides and cultures possess the potential for invigorating philosophy and bringing it back to basic questions of philosophy born out of wonder or frustration. Such utopias are not idealistic but represent our striving for a more realistic grasp of who we are and how we experience the world. The inherent tension between the particular and the universal\, the private and the public\, so strongly debated within feminist philosophy is a resource for disclosing new philosophical futures.\nOver the course of four days we will explore these themes together. The first day will be spent at the University of Iceland in Reykjavík where we will listen to keynote speakers in an open conference. In the evening we leave for Skálholt which is a beautiful historic place in the south of Iceland\, about an hour’s drive from Reykjavík. In Skálholt we will have a three-day workshop with paper presentations and discussion sessions.\nThe symposium provides a space for theoretical experimentation and cross-fertilization of methodologies and ideas. It aims to develop insights that could be used for further research within philosophy\, literature\, history of ideas and related areas. We welcome proposals for presentations at the workshop in Skálholt.\nFormat of the presentation:\nEach presentation will have 30 minutes for presentation and discussion.\nTo submit a proposal please send via email to the coordinators: feministphilosophy@nsuweb.org or eyjabryn@hi.is\nA written proposal (350 words) with a title and descriptive subtitle.\nA short bio (200 words)\nIf you would like to attend the symposium without presenting\, please email a short bio.\nThe deadline to submit proposals is November 15\, 2016. \nContact persons are Sigríður Þorgeirsdóttir sigrthor@hi.is  and Eyja M. Brynjarsdóttir eyjabryn@hi.is.

SUMMARY:An Imaginary Conversation Between Margaret Cavendish and Virginia Woolf
DESCRIPTION:A special public\, script-in-hand performance offered in conjunction with the Nicosia Medieval Festival 2017\, at CVAR Ermou Street\, Niscosia\, Cyrpus\, as part of Othello’s Island 2017 – the Annual Conference on Medieval and Early Modern Studies. In this premiere\, semi-performed reading of a new play by Jim Fitzmaurice\, we are asked to imagine an impossible meeting. Two women writers – both notorious in their day\, but separated by over two hundred years – finally chance upon one another at the Bahtezar Cafe in CVAR. \nThis brief performance creates an imaginary conversation\, both serious and comic\, between Margaret Cavendish\, a prolific Early Modern woman writer\, and Virginia Woolf\, the famous novelist who ridiculed Cavendish in “The Common Reader” (1929). Woolf was fascinated by Cavendish\, and the ridicule seems to have hidden a strong affinity felt by Woolf for Cavendish. The two talk philosophy and what might be called “the nature of nature”. For Cavendish\, the Goddess Natura was all important. Along the way\, she and Woolf also get up to high jinks with Sir Constantijn Huygens\, John Evelyn\, and other 17th century intellectuals.\nActors and stage crew will include students from the University of Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam University.

SUMMARY:The Contribution of Wollstonecraft to Contemporary Issues in Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:Mary Wollstonecraft worked primarily on social and political philosophy\, with an emphasis on republicanism\, education and women’s rights. But she also touched on other topics: slavery\, aesthetics\, marriage\, work\, family\, masculinity\, virtue\, reason\, passions\, theology and epistemology. \nThe driving motivation for this workshop is not primarily to develop Wollstonecraft scholarship\, but to show how the issues she discussed are still philosophically relevant and that her arguments sometimes can cast light on contemporary problems. A second aim is to show that the study of women philosophers of the past is a highly productive part of academic philosophy\, and to model how it may be done. \n  \nKeynotes: \nSarah Hutton (York)\nHatice Nur Erkizan (Muğla) \nSpeakers: \nSandrine Bergès (Bilkent)\nLaura Brace (Leicester)\nAlan Coffee (KCL)\nÖzlem Duva (Ege)\nPatrick Fessenbecker (Bilkent)\nBurcu Gürkan (İstanbul Şehir)\nZübeyde Karadağ (Hacettepe)\nLucas Thorpe (Boğaziçi)\nSaniye Vatansever (Yeditepe)\nRoberta Wedge\nGözde Yıldırım (Boğaziçi) \n  \nLocations:\n1-2 June 2017 Bilkent University (Room A130)\n3-4 June 2017 Cappadocia. \n  \nThis project is funded through a Newton mobility fellowship.\nThe workshop is organized by Sandrine Bergès and Alan Coffee\, in co-operation with the Department of Philosophy at Bilkent.

SUMMARY:Changing the Nature of Art and Science - Intersections with Maria Sibylla Merian
DESCRIPTION:Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717) is one of the more intriguing figures of scientific\, artistic and commercial culture of the early modern period. Born in Frankfurt\, and later based in Nuremberg\, Wieuwerd and Amsterdam\, her scientific interest in entomology eventually led her to Surinam\, where\, as in Europe\, she studied the metamorphoses of insects in their natural habitat. She translated her minute observations into powerful artistic representations that still attract the attention of many scholars\, such as biologists\, art historians and science historians. Modern artists and novelists also find inspiration in her work and life. In commemoration of her death three hundred years ago the Maria Sibylla Merian Society in cooperation with the Artis Academy\, the University of Amsterdam and the Artis Library will organize an international conference in the Royal Tropical Institute and the Artis Zoo in Amsterdam on 7\, 8 and 9 June 2017. The aim of the conference is to bring together new research and projects relating to Maria Sibylla Merian. With her life and work as a focal point\, this conference will also discuss topics that relate to Merian from a broader perspective.

SUMMARY:Applications & Implications - Ethics and Metaphysics in Edith Stein's Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:The Fourth Bi-Annual International Conference: Applications & Implications – Ethics and Metaphysics in Edith Stein’s Philosophy will be presented by the International Association for the Study of the Philosophy of Edith Stein\, in collaboration with the University of Portland (USA)\, and the McNerney-Hanson Endowed Chair in Ethics. \nSpeakers: Sarah Borden Sharkey (Wheaton College)\, Michael F. Andrews (University of Portland)\, Christof Betschart (University of Fribourg\, Switzerland) and Suzanne M. Batzdorff \nEdith Stein (1891–1942) never wrote a formal work of ethics\, yet her philosophical corpus\, especially her metaphysics\, contains a plethora of ethical resources and ideas that can be mined to address various questions\, themes or positions in contemporary ethics and metaphysics\, including the relationship between the good and being\, evil\, limits\, judgement\, responsibility\, personal identity\, collective versus individual action and responsibility\, moral guilt\, and intention. Given the richness of Stein’s ideas\, can her ethical insights be brought to bear on contemporary issues and ethical dilemmas? How would Stein respond to various ethical problems raised by dominant ethical schools\, including utilitarianism\, deontology\, virtue ethics\, pragmatism\,and existentialism? Are there possible practical applications of Stein’s metaphysicsand ethics to contemporary society? The International Association for the Study of the Philosophy of Edith Stein (IASPES) in collaboration with the University of Portlandand and the McNerney-Hanson Chair in Ethics invites abstracts (250 words maximum) dealing with the aforementioned theme. We also invite abstracts on any aspect of Stein’s philosophy.

SUMMARY:Women\, Authorship\, and Identity in the Long Eighteenth Century - New Methodologies
DESCRIPTION:The Conference “Women\, Authorship\, and Identity in the Long Eighteenth Century: New Methodologies” presented by the University of Oxford\, will take place at June 17th\, 2017. The keynote will be delivered by Prof. Susanne Kord. \nKeynote Speaker: Professor Susanne Kord (Chair of German\, University College London) \nWe are delighted to invite proposals for papers offering new approaches female authorship and identity in the long eighteenth century. Since the 1970s\, feminist criticism has rediscovered a vast body of literary works by eighteenth-century women and uncovered a great deal about the diverse roles that women played in eighteenth-century society and culture\, as authors\, actresses\, translators\, and public figures. Studies of women’s writing have challenged our understandings of genre\, periodisation\, and authorship\, and gender has become an integral part of any discussion of individual identity. \nOrganised by Romanticism and Eighteenth-Century Studies Oxford (RECSO) and the Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities (TORCH)\, this conference aims to take stock after fifty years of important scholarship and to seek out exciting new methodologies for researching women’s writing and identities in the long eighteenth century (c. 1680-c. 1820). We hope to encourage dialogue between disciplines and languages and would welcome papers from researchers and graduate students working in any national tradition and in fields from literature and history to philosophy\, music\, visual arts\, and sociology. \nCFP: (https://c18womenauthorshipidentity.wordpress.com/) Please send proposals of no more than 300 words to Joanna Raisbeck (joanna.raisbeck@some.ox.ac.uk) and Kelsey Rubin-Detlev (kelsey.rubin-detlev@modlangs.ox.ac.uk) by February 28th\, 2017. \nPapers should be in English and twenty (20) minutes in length. Possible topics might include (but are not limited to): \n— Women’s writing in the canon/as a separate canon \n— Women’s writing and the question of aesthetic merit \n— Biography/biographism in scholarship on women’s writing \n— Anthologising and publishing women’s writing \n— Women’s cultural production as a challenge to traditional historiography and\nperiodisation \n— Uses and misuses of critical theory \n— Anonymity and collective authorship in relation to gender \n— Women’s self-fashioning \n— Comparative/cross-cultural approaches to women’s writing \n— Intersections between gendered and other forms of identity in the eighteenth century \n— Women and women’s writing in fields such as science\, mathematics\, and philosophy

SUMMARY:24th International Conference of the Simone de Beauvoir Society
DESCRIPTION:The University of Haifa (Israel) is pleased to host the 24th International Conference of the Simone de Beauvoir Society “Simone de Beauvoir’s Feminism(s)”. Keynote speakers are Prof. Bauer\, Prof. Bergoffen and Prof. Weiss. \nThe influence of Simone de Beauvoir’s thought on Feminism and Feminist Theory is indisputable. Beauvoir’s The Second Sex is unanimously recognized as one of the main pillars of feminist thought and as a major work of the 20th Century. The Second Sex has informed both feminist thought and feminist political struggle and activism. \nBeauvoir’s feminism is nevertheless not only reflected through The Second Sex\, but also through other philosophical and theoretical books and papers\, short essays as well as her fiction and literary works. Thus\, we might ask: What kind of feminism does Beauvoir advocate? Or\, are there in fact many “Beauvoir’s feminisms”? How are these feminisms connected to other both past and contemporary feminist ideas and feminist struggles? \nThe 24th International Conference of the Simone de Beauvoir Society will take place at the University of Haifa\, Israel\, from June 19-21\, 2017\, hosted by the Women’s and Gender Studies Graduate Program in collaboration with the Philosophy Department. We welcome submissions on Beauvoir’s life and works from a broad range of disciplines. Papers that engage and challenge Beauvoir’s feminist ideas and those that analyze Beauvoir’s feminist work in relation to contemporary political action and theoretical work are desired\, but all work on Beauvoir will be considered. We welcome work from a variety of perspectives- historical\, philosophical\, literary\, comparative analyses\, among others. \nKeynote Speakers: Prof. Nancy Bauer\, Prof. Debra Bergoffen\, Prof. Gail Weiss. \nTo submit your proposal\, please send an abstract of no more than 800 words in English and a short Curriculum Vitae including your contact details and institutional affiliation\, if any\, to the conference organizer: Dr. Sara Cohen Shabot (scohensh@univ.haifa.ac.il) \nCFP: https://philevents.org/event/show/27942 Submission deadline: February 15th\, 2017

SUMMARY:Giving Life to Politics - The Work of Adriana Cavarero
DESCRIPTION:This three-day conference is a sustained engagement with\, and celebration of\, the life work of Italian feminist philosopher Adriana Cavarero. It also marks the publication of her most recent text “Inclinations: A Critique od Rectitude” (Stanford University Press\, 2016). \nKeynote speakers: \nJudith Butler \nUniversity of California\, Berkeley \nAdriana Cavarero \nUniversità degli Studi di Verona \nBonnie Honig \nBrown University \nAdriana Cavarero has been at the forefront of continental feminist philosophy for the past four decades\, working in the interstices of sexual difference theory\, post-structuralism\, political philosophy\, literature and classical thought. Her books have addressed a range of themes\, including feminist political philosophy (In Spite of Plato\, 1995; Stately Bodies\, 2002)\, narrativity (Relating Narratives\, 2000)\, the voice and vocality (For More than One Voice\, 2005)\, and contemporary forms of violence (Horrorism\, 2009). Common to all of Cavarero’s work is an extension of Hannah Arendt’s conceptualisation of uniqueness\, an insistence on the vulnerability of the human condition\, and an immanent critique of western metaphysics. \nCFP: Abstracts of up to 500 words which respond to any aspect of Cavarero’s work should be submitted by no later than 28th February 2017 to Ian Sinclair: I.A.Sinclair@brighton.ac.uk. There are however a limited number of places at this conference. We will prioritise abstracts as they arrive. \nThe University of Brighton’s City Campus is in the centre of Brighton\, a ten minute walk from Brighton railway station. Brighton is thirty minutes by train from Gatwick Airport and around an hour from central London. The campus is near many hotels\, guest houses\, restaurants\, bars and pubs. Brighton and Hove is a major tourist destination in the south-east of England. Consider staying longer to see more of the city if you are able to.

SUMMARY:Fourth Annual Conference by Women in Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:For the fourth year in a row\, the Conference by Women in Philosophy will be held in Amsterdam. This year’s conference will take place on Monday July 3rd\, 2017 at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The goal of the conference is to provide a platform for undergraduate and graduate women philosophers to present their work to their peers. In this way we hope to create an opportunity for young women philosophers to inspire and motivate one another and to forge potentially productive alliances. The conference features a plenary discussion with a keynote speaker (t.b.a.) about the position of women in philosophy\, as well as workshops on academic skills. \nIn the Netherlands\, like in the rest of the world\, women are underrepresented in academic philosophy. Being young women ourselves\, we want to challenge this situation – whilst being aware of the fact that the marginal positioning of women in philosophy also depends on factors other than their sex\, like ethnicity\, religion\, social status\, disability or sexual orientation. We are committed to creating a more balanced environment and to empowering (those identifying as) women to make the academic space their own. \nWe therefore invite (those identifying as) women philosophers (BA\, MA\, PhD\, recent alumnae) to send in abstracts for paper presentations in any area of philosophy. We will accept a maximum of approximately 20 papers. If you are a teacher\, please encourage your women students to react to our… \nCall for papers:\n\nDeadline: 22 March 2017\nWord limit: 500 words\nInclude up to 5 key words.\nPrepare your abstract for blind review (your abstract should be anonymous).\nInclude a separate document with your contact information\, your current academic occupation (i.e.: your position or study program\, or your most recent degree)\, and the title of your paper.\nAbstracts can be submitted via e-mail at womeninphilosophyconference@gmail.com.\nTake into account that you are expected to hand in a paper before the conference\, so that your respondent may read it. The deadline will be communicated to accepted presenters. (Working papers and student papers are eligible.)\nAbstracts may be written in English or Dutch.\n\nEach presenter will have 20 minutes to present her paper and there will be a respondent for each paper. The expected conference fee is €10. Everyone is welcome to attend the conference. The conference is organized by philosophy students and PhD candidates from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and the University of Amsterdam (UvA). \nE-mail: womeninphilosophyconference@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Karen Green - "Catharine Macaulay\, Brissot de Warville\, and the History of England in the French Revolution"
DESCRIPTION:In 1785 Jacques-Pierre Brissot de Warville was in London\, attempting to set up a society and journal to encourage cross-channel literary and political communication. His efforts resulted in the production of a few issues of the Lycee de Londres. He reported that in England he gained little support or encouragement\, except from Catharine Macaulay. In this paper I examine their friendship\, and explore the influence of Macaulay’s account of the seventeenth-century English Revolution on ‘patriots’ and others\, in France\, prior to and during the French Revolution. \nProf. Dr. Karen Green (University of Melbourne) is giving her talk as part of the Research Colloquium “History of Women Philosophers” at the Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists (Paderborn University).

SUMMARY:Émilie Du Châtelet on Matter\, Bodies\, Forces\, and Motion
DESCRIPTION:The Libori Summer School “Émilie Du Châtelet: Matter\, Bodies\, Forces\, Motion” focuses on some of the chapters from Du Châtelet’s Institutions de physique (1740/42) within the context of the scientific thinking of her time.\nIn the early 18th century\, the Dutch physicist Willem Jacob ‘s Gravesande\, at Leiden University\, performed a number of experiments wherein he dropped balls of different mass on soft clay\, finding that if the heights from which the balls fell were inversely proportional to their masses\, the indentations made by the balls would be the same. He concluded that the measure of the force of the impact on the clay is given by the weight times the velocity squared and that\, in the case under consideration\, equal forces are produced if the velocities squared are inversely the same as the masses. Gravesande communicated his results on the impact of falling weights to Émilie du Châtelet. In her Institutions de physique (1740/42)\, du Châtelet combined the practical observations of Gravesande to the Leibnizian idea of living forces in order to show that the energy of a moving object is proportional to the square of its velocity: “Maintenant\, enfin\, il y avait une justification forte pour considérer mv2 comme une définition féconde de l’énergie.” \n\n\n\n\nThe Libori Summer School on Émilie Du Châtelet aims to take a closer look at the complexities and interrelations between metaphysical reasoning\, mathematical demonstrative methodology\, and experimental philosophy beyond the outdated empiricism-rationalism scheme\, focusing on the conceptual foundations and formations of theories of motion. This development can be best understood as emancipation from Cartesianism\, Newtonianism\, and Leibnizianism. Émilie Du Châtelet played a key role in this foundational change. Encouraged by the reception of Newton’s Principia in France after 1730 by Voltaire and Pierre Louis Moreau de Maupertuis and the experimental results obtained by Willem Jacob ‘s Gravesande\, Du Châtelet constructed an advanced interpretation of Galileo’s experimental results in terms of early Leibnizian notions which was independent from Leibniz’ later metaphysics after 1680. \n\n\n\n\nLanguage: The seminar will be held in English. \nOrganizer/ Lecturer:\nProf. Dr. Ruth Hagengruber (Paderborn University\, Germany)\nDr. Andrea Reichenberger (Paderborn University\, Germany)\nDr. Dr. Dieter Suisky (Humboldt University\, Germany) \nGeneral information:\nAs the number of participants is limited to 15 for each course\, please e-mail a one page letter of motivation and a brief curriculum vitae to contact(at)historyofwomenphilosophers(dot)org and cc to the lecturer andrea(dot)reichenberger(at)uni-paderborn(dot)de until July 15th\, 2017.\nA certificate of participation will be presented to you in the closing ceremony.

SUMMARY:Women Phenomenologists of the Early 20th Century
DESCRIPTION:Libori Summer School course “Women Phenomenologists of the Early 20th Century”: In 1907\, the Göttingen Circle of phenomenologists was founded by Theodor Conrad – one of many students of Theodor Lipps who travelled from Munich to study with Husserl – and Alfred von Sybel – one of Husserl’s early Göttingen followers. Over the next three decades\, students from around the globe flocked to study with Husserl in Göttingen and in Freiburg. Among these students were numerous women\, some of whom rose to prominence within the early phenomenological movement\, namely\, Hedwig Martius\, Edith Stein\, and Gerda Walther.  \nMartius\, who would later marry Theodor Conrad\, was one of the so-called “invaders” who came to Göttingen from Munich. On the advice of Moritz Geiger\, Martius studied with Husserl\, as well as Adolf Reinach and Max Scheler\, from WS 1910/11 – SS 1912. While studying with Husserl\, she authored Die erkenntnistheoretischen Grundlagen des Positivismus (1913)\, which then served as her doctoral dissertation under the supervision of Alexander Pfänder back in Munich. Despite her philosophical acumen and the respect of her colleagues for works such as her Zur Ontologie und Erscheinungslehre der realen Aussenwelt (1916) and Realontologie (1923)\, because women were not permitted to habilitate\, Martius was unable to secure an academic position until 1949\, when she became lecturer in natural philosophy\, and then honorary professor in Munich in 1955. In opposition to Husserl\, Martius was a staunch defender of realist phenomenology\, and introduced the concept of “real reality” into phenomenological discourse. \nStein came to Göttingen from Breslau to study with Husserl in 1913 at the urging of her cousin\, Richard Courant. She remained with Husserl until 1918\, completing her dissertation\, Zum Problem der Einfühlung (1917)\, under his supervision\, and then working as his research assistant. In the following years Stein attempted to habilitate twice\, producing the works Beiträge zur philosophischen Begründung der Psychologie und der Geisteswissenschaften (1922) and Potenz und Akt (1931). Unfortunately\, she was rejected both times. In 1932\, she obtained a position teaching philosophy at the German Institute for Pedagogical Science in Münster. However\, she was removed from her position in the spring of 1932 due to her Jewish ancestry. She died at Auschwitz in 1942. Stein is widely regarded as one of Husserl’s greatest students\, though her personal and intellectual relationship with the “Master” was often strained. \n\n\n\n\nWalther was one of the founding members of the Freiburg group of phenomenologists. Like many others\, she came to work with Husserl after first studying with Pfänder in Munich. From the summer semester of 1917 to the summer semester of 1919\, she attended lectures and seminars by Husserl\, Stein\, and Heidegger. Her dissertation\, Ein Beitrag zur Ontologie der sozialen Gemeinschaften: Mit einem Anhang zur Phänomenologie der sozialen Gemeinschaften (1922)\, combined elements of Husserl’s mature thought with Pfänder’s views on values and sentiments. After publishing what many consider to be her magnum opus\, Phänomenologie der Mystik (1923)\, she became deeply interested in the paranormal and the occult. This led to her being ostracized from the phenomenological community\, and as a result her place in the phenomenological movement has been largely overlooked. \nThe aim of this summer school is to discuss and critically assess the philosophical works of Hedwig Conrad-Martius\, Edith Stein\, and Gerda Walther. Texts from each of these women will be read\, contextualized\, compared\, and contrasted. Special attention will be paid to how they built on and departed from the work of their phenomenological teachers – Husserl\, Pfänder\, Reinach\, Scheler – and how the works of the early women of phenomenology engaged in a dialogue with each other. Topics which may be covered include: the concept of being\, the realism/idealism debate\, the status of the I\, empathy\, religious experience\, and their critiques of Husserl. \n\nLanguage: The seminar will be held in English. Where possible\, primary texts will be made available in English.\n\n\n\nLecturer:\nProf. Dr. Ronny Miron (Bar-Ilan University\, Israel)\nProf. Dr. Antonio Calcagno (King’s University College\, Canada)\nDr. Rodney K.B. Parker (Paderborn University\, Germany)  \nOrganizer: Julia Mühl (Paderborn University\, Germany) \nGeneral information:\nAs the number of participants is limited to 15 for each course\, please e-mail a one page letter of motivation and a brief curriculum vitae to contact(at)historyofwomenphilosophers(dot)org and cc to the lecturer julia.muehl(at)upb(dot)de until July 15th\, 2017.\nEverybody interested in this topic is welcome to attend this seminar.

SUMMARY:Helene Druskowitz and Modern Misandry
DESCRIPTION:This Libori Summer School course “Helene Druskowitz and Modern Misandry” will offer an overview over a minimally investigated “third voice” in the history of ideas: man-hating (misandry\, viriphobia). As some would argue\, misandry\, though more covertly than misogyny\, has always been present in the public discourse of our civilization. However\, around the fin de siècle misogynistic discourse reached an apex: as an answer to it we have two different movements. The first is the widely known and investigated turn-of-the-century feminism that lead to philosophical\, political\, and cultural changes such as the improvement of women’s education\, political rights\, better paid work\, intensifying discourse of the equality of sexes\, equal human rights etc. The second is much less known – misandry\, which regards the human male as constitutionally inferior to and morally more deficient than woman. \nThe focus of our investigation will be Helene (von) Druskowitz (1856–1918) and the context in which she lived and developed her thought. She was a philosopher\, writer\, literary and music critic\, and the first woman in Austria and the second woman in German-speaking countries to obtain a doctorate in philosophy. Besides her academic and literary activities\, she set up journals with topics related to the emancipation of women (Fehderuf\, Der heilige Kampf). Her initial enthusiasm for Nietzsche\, with whom she was personally acquainted\, and his philosophical positions were soon replaced by resentment and disillusionment and she turned into a severe critic of his works. As an antithesis to Nietzsche’s antifeminist positions\, Druskowitz forms her radically feminist position that culminates in her work Pessimistic Cardinal Propositions – Man as a Logical and Moral Impossibility from 1905. In it she depicts a dark futuristic philosophical anti-utopia in which men are destroying the world and fantasizes about the world that would flourish if it were solely inhabited by women. With such radical positions\, she was more than 60 years ahead: it was only in the late 1960s that similar radical positions were expressed\, e.g. in the SCUM Manifesto by Valerie Jean Solanas.\nIn the Libori Summer School we will enquire into following contexts regarding Helene Druskowitz: \n\nHelene Druskowitz’ Philosophy (criticism of religion\, the Free Will problem\, ethics)\nLiterary works of Helene Druskowitz (from: International\, Das Männerproletariat oder die Fällung des Mannes als Tier und Denker)\nHelene von Druskowitz’ feminism and misandry ‘\nDruskowitz’ legacy\n\nLanguage: The seminar will be held in English. \nOrganizer/ Lecturer:\nDr. Dr. Luka Borsic (University of Zagreb\, Croatia)\, Dr. Ivana Skuhala Karasman (University of Zagreb\, Croatia)\, Jessica Harmening (Paderborn University\, Germany) \nGeneral information: As the number of participants is limited to 15 for each course\, please e-mail a one page letter of motivation and a brief curriculum vitae to contact(at)historyofwomenphilosophers(dot)org and cc to jessica.harmening(at)upb(dot)de until July 15th\, 2017.\nEverybody interested in this topic is welcome to attend this seminar.

SUMMARY:Feminist Philosophy - Feminism\, Phenomenology\, and Genealogy
DESCRIPTION:Keynote speakers: Sigridur Thorgeirsdottir\, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Iceland\, specializing in feminist philosophy\, the philosophy of Nietzsche\, and the philosophy of nature and embodiment. Cecilia Malmström Olsson\, PhD at Lund University in Literature\, with special focus on Dance Studies. Malmström Olsson specializes in dance and aesthetics\, as well as dance and politics from different perspectives\, such as identity\, gender\, race\, and power relations.\n\nThe network Feminist Philosophy: Time\, history and the transformation of thought (2017-2019)\, invites scholars to Saulkrasti\, Latvia\, 26 July–2 August 2017.\nThe aim of the conference is to create a space for critical feminist practices of reading. We want to develop and draw connections between philosophy and feminist theory\, informed by historical perspectives. How can feminism revitalize philosophy and interpretations of its history? What would a philosophical feminism look like? What would it mean to read feminist theory historically?\nThe meeting in Saulkrasti is the second out of a total of six conferences during a three-year period.\nThe first conference Feminist Utopias was held in collaboration with the University of Iceland in March 2017\, attracting about 60 scholars from all over the world.
