Jonathan Wolff is probably a tad out of touch (Report, 26 November). There are any number of brilliant youthful and not so younger women philosophers in the United kingdom. The question is: do the males read the articles or blog posts, blogs and books of these girls? Do they listen to the contributions created by them at seminars, and conferences? A lady professor of philosophy would have been capable to feel of 6 or seven ranking professors of philosophy whose operate they admire, who also take place to be girls: Helen Beebee, Nancy Cartwright, Tina Chanter, Jen Hornsby, Catherine Malabou, Onora O’Neill, Jenny Saul. Perspective is a humorous thing. At Manchester Metropolitan we are holding a series of lectures in spring 2014 by philosophers young and old, senior and early occupation, on various factors of the hoary subject Women and Philosophy. The men have been expelling us ever given that Plato.
