An Edition and Translation of Selections from Louise Dupin's Philosophical Treatise, "The Work on Women"
Preparation for publication of a print edition of Louise Dupin’s Work on Women (1745 – 1751). (16 months)
This project is an edition and translation of selections of Louise Dupin's Work on Women, a philosophical treatise written circa 1745–1751. The project will be published as a book with the “New Histories of Philosophy” series at Oxford University Press. The selections will serve as an orientation to Dupin’s total Work, concentrating its most important arguments. It will contain a robust introduction; a selection of over half of the Work on Women; four appendices, a bibliography, and an index. Our selection draws from the Work’s five main thematic sections on natural philosophy, religion, history, law, and education.
