International Workshop Yeditepe University, Department of Philosophy Istanbul, May 5-6th 2016 Contact: Dr Alberto L. Siani (alberto.siani@gmail.com) The workshop is organized in the frameworks of the newly instituted hub “Turkish European Network for the Study of Women in Philosophy” and of the newly instituted Joint Master Program “History of Women Philosophers/History of Philosophy” (University of Paderborn-Yeditepe University Istanbul). The overall aim of these two projects is the study of women philosophers and of the changes in the canonical history of philosophy resulting from a thorough consideration of the women contribution. Within this broader framework, this workshop addresses the women philosophers’ contribution to a particularly relevant topic: the notion of autonomy. Autonomy, together with its cognate concepts (self-determination, self-mastery, self-government etc.), is among the central concepts across the whole history and the whole spectrum of the philosophical debate, yet the women philosophers’ contribution to its development has been seldom investigated. See "Workshop" page for more details. In this blog we hope to announce any events or projects run by or relevant to this network. Please dont hesitate to contact us if you have anything you would like to share.
