Beschreibung
The work of Michele Le Doeuff creatively disrupts established notions of what philosophy might be. Far from being a discipline about the leader and the disciple, a hierarchy of knowledge and paternalism, Le Doeuff proposes a philosophy of dialogue and friendship. The conversations in this book explore how this philosophy can be enacted and explored, and show how openness and generosity can be the starting point of truly rigorous thinking.
Introduced and curated by the late philosopher, Pamela Sue Anderson, In Dialogue with Michele Le Doeuff explores themes like contemporary feminism, joy in philosophy, memory, the significance of friendship to thinking and a key Le Doeuffian concept, the imaginary. Le Doeuff's interlocutors, including Penelope Deutscher, Elizabeth Fallaize and Meenda Dhanda, are some of the most significant thinkers in the fields of feminism and continental thought and provide insights and ways into considering philosophy as a profoundly dialogical exercise.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
In Dialogue with Michele Le Doeuff sparkles on the future possibilities of feminist philosophy. Le Doeuff's style is delightful: witty, erudite and deflating of all pomposity. This is philosophical conversation at its most historically imaginative, political, and inclusive. A triumph of feminist thought as intellectual friendship's equality. * Lorna Hutson, FBA, Merton Professor of English Literature, University of Oxford, UK * This fascinating collection gives a rare insight into how the philosophical work of various marginalized groups has been both autonomous yet responsive to the work of others. There is a vast amount to learn here, not just about how to philosophize at the margins, but about how to philosophize. * A.W. Moore, Professor of Philosophy, University of Oxford, UK *Weitere Details
