History of women philosophers as an interdisciplinary endeavor

The project of discovering and inserting women philosophers into the canon of philosophers is not necessarily feminist—however tightly it may relate to feminist ideas— the following methodical question arises. Is there a special requirement for interdisciplinarity that goes beyond what is expected and is inherent in any historical, or more particularly historico- philosophical research or even in feminist research? In my presentation I argue that a different kind of interdisciplinarity is indeed necessary for successfully researching the history of female philosophers. When dealing with female philosophers of the past, we must consider different social, economic, and psychological conditions that are often taken for granted when dealing with the traditional philosophical canon.
