Bibliography of Feminist Philosophers Writing about the History of Philosophy

This bibliography was first constructed by Abigail Gosselin, who maintained it until 2006. In 2015, it was revised and restructured by Rosalind Chaplin and Emily Hodges. In 2021 it was revised and restructured by Alin Varciu.

The bibliography begins with a general section of sources that span historical periods. The sections that follow are organized by historical period, and by philosophical traditions (for the Twentieth Century). Each section begins with a set of general sources for the period. It then lists philosophers from the period in chronological order (by year of birth) with sources proper to those figures. With respect to secondary sources, this bibliography focuses on material written in English.

The 2015 revision includes substantial additions through the Eighteenth Century. Some annotations are provided, especially for general sources. These annotations, however, may not include complete information regarding the figures covered in the volume.

The 2021 revision includes a chronological reordering of the philosophers included in each historical period (by year of birth), and a restructuring of the Twentieth Century section according to the philosophical traditions of the time. While the bibliography was revised overall, substantial additions have been added especially to the sections on Medieval Philosophy, Eighteenth Century Philosophy, Nineteenth Century Philosophy, and Twentieth Century Philosophy.

English mathematician and philosopher (1861–1947)

Alfred North WhiteheadOM FRS FBA (15 February 1861 – 30 December 1947) was an English mathematician and philosopher. He created the philosophical school known as process philosophy, which has been applied in a wide variety of disciplines, including ecology, theology, education, physics, biology, economics, and psychology.

In his early career Whitehead wrote primarily on mathematics, logic, and physics. He wrote the three-volume Principia Mathematica (1910–1913), with his former student Bertrand Russell. Principia Mathematica is considered one of the twentieth century's most important works in mathematical logic, and placed 23rd in a list of the top 100 English-language nonfiction books of the twentieth century by Modern Library.

Beginning in the late 1910s and early 1920s, Whitehead gradually turned his attention from mathematics to philosophy of science, and finally to metaphysics. He developed a comprehensive metaphysical system which radically departed from most of Western philosophy. Whitehead argued that reality consists of processes rather than material objects, and that processes are best defined by their relations with other processes, thus rejecting the theory that reality is fundamentally constructed by bits of matter that exist independently of one another. Whitehead's philosophical works – particularly Process and Reality – are regarded as the foundational texts of process philosophy.

Whitehead's process philosophy argues that "there is urgency in coming to see the world as a web of interrelated processes of which we are integral parts, so that all of our choices and actions have consequences for the world around us." For this reason, one of the most promising applications of Whitehead's thought in the 21st century has been in the area of ecological civilization and environmental ethics pi

The Journal of the History of Philosophy is an internationally recognized quarterly that publishes peer-reviewed articles, notes, discussions, and book reviews devoted to the history of philosophy. In light of the expertise of our editorial team, we consider contributions in the following areas: Ancient Greek and Latin Philosophy, early to late Medieval Philosophy (Latin, Arabic, Hebrew), and European and Anglo-American philosophical traditions from the Renaissance to 20th century. We also consider contributions that explore historical influences between these areas and with traditions in the history of philosophy not mentioned here. The journal publishes material in English, French, and German. It appears quarterly in January, April, July, and October.
