Tuija Pulkkinen and Susanne Lettow are organising a workshop on German Idealism and Feminist Philosophy for our conference IAPh - Defining the Future, Rethinking the Past.

In this workshop Tuija Pulkkinen and Susanne Lettow want to explore the various interrelations between German Idealism and feminist philosophy by dwelling on key concepts like equality, autonomy, the subject, nature, and consciousness, as well as, e.g. the dialectics of master and slave. In addition, gender and sexuality were central issues of German Idealists, and many of them reflected intensively on topics such as love, marriage, the family, and the political status of women. How and to what extent can their ideas be made fecund for today’s gender issues?
