Women Philosophers online

In the presentation, we will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the Internet in respect of the inclusion of women philosophers in the canon of the history of philosophy. The digitization of book collections and the accessibility of scholarly articles, as well as the availability of state and church archives, have significantly influenced the discovery of "new" women philosophers. The movement of including women philosophers in the canon of the history of philosophy runs in parallel with the increasing availability of sources, so we would almost dare to say that the development of the Internet is responsible for this part of the universal history of philosophy. Moreover, the Internet has significantly enhanced various possibilities of establishing cooperations among researchers of the history of philosophy in the world so that there have emerged the critical masses of scientists of similar interests and various centres for studying the history of women philosophers were established (e.g. The Centre of the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists in Paderborn). As an example, we will cite our study of the Austrian philosopher of Croatian origin, Helene Druskowitz.
