{"product_id":"women-philosophers-of-eighteenth-century-england-jacqueline-broad-9780197506998","title":"Women Philosophers of Eighteenth-Century England: Selected Correspondence","description":"This is the second of two collections of correspondence written by early modern English women philosophers. In this volume, Jacqueline Broad presents letters from three influential thinkers of the eighteenth century: Mary Astell, Elizabeth Thomas, and Catharine Trotter Cockburn. Broad provides introductory essays for each figure and explanatory annotations to clarify unfamiliar language, content, and historical context for the modern reader. Her selections make available many letters that have never been published before or that live scattered in various archives, obscure manuscripts, and rare books. The discussions range in subject from moral theology and ethics to epistemology and metaphysics; they involve some well-known thinkers of the period, such as John Norris, George Hickes, Mary Chudleigh, John Locke, and Edmund Law. By centering epistolary correspondence, Broad's anthology works to reframe early modern philosophy, the foundation for so much of twentieth-century philosophy, as consisting of collaborative debates that women actively participated in and shaped. Together with its companion volume, \u003cem\u003eWomen Philosophers of Eighteenth-Century England: Selected Correspondence\u003c\/em\u003e is an invaluable primary resource for students, scholars, and those undertaking further research in the history of women's contributions to the formation and development of early modern thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacqueline Broad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0197506992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780197506998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Jacqueline Broad","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44450244690175,"sku":"9780197506998","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_859f302d-f8a7-419c-9ab1-eea73a698758.jpg?v=1698503661","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-philosophers-of-eighteenth-century-england-jacqueline-broad-9780197506998","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
