Women's contributions to the achievements of the Lvov-Warsaw school
a survey
Elżbieta Pakszys
pp. 55-71
According to conventional wisdom philosophy is a bastion of patriarchy: masculine bias determines both the object of study (quite often discrediting femininity) and the dominant gender of the "agents/subjects' representing the field and carrying on work in it. Rarely in history has a woman been included in the list of great thinkers.1 Nevertheless, within the relatively short span of the last two centuries, when women gradually began obtaining education comparable to that of men, women philosophers have appeared and today we shall look at some interesting examples of the contributions they have made to this area of the humanities.
