The Brilliant Women of Philosophy

Countless brilliant women have contributed to the history of philosophy. Sadly, their names are less mentioned, and their works less well known, so in this video we wanted to give a brief introduction to some of the women throughout history who have shaped the world we live in. We cover Diotima, Hypatia, Émilie du Châtelet, Simone de Beauvoir, and Hannah Arendt, but make no mistake, there are so many more, so we urge you to explore the vast trove of women in the history of philosophy. These philosophers are often overshadowed by their male counterparts, but many of them rose above all of their peers to become the top of their field.
