Our Directory holds a broad range of women philosophers. Each one has an entry with a short text on their life, including a picture. However we at the Center for the History of Women Philosophers also gathered a selection of sources to make research easier and sources more accessible. 

You will find primary and secondary sources, as well as online sources. In the case of Emilie du Chatelet you will find a wide range of her writings, which are partially linked to online scans, making the sources easy to access.

The online sources are a great start for research on Emilie du Chatelet.
