Argumentaire\u00a0:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ce s\u00e9minaire s\u2019articule en deux axes principaux\u00a0: d\u2019une part, la femme comme objet philosophique et, d\u2019autre part, la femme comme sujet de la philosophie durant la premi\u00e8re modernit\u00e9 (XVIe-XVIIIe si\u00e8cles).<\/p>\n

1\/ Et la philosophie cr\u00e9a la femme.<\/strong> Le premier axe se penche sur les th\u00e9ories de l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes d\u00e9ploy\u00e9es, notamment, dans le cadre de la Querelle des femmes. Bien que les historiens s\u2019accordent \u00e0 faire remonter un tel d\u00e9bat sur la diff\u00e9rence et l\u2019identit\u00e9 des sexes au d\u00e9but du XVe si\u00e8cle, certaines des questions port\u00e9es sur les capacit\u00e9s intellectuelles, \u00e9motionnelles et physiques des femmes, sur leur droit \u00e0 l\u2019acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9ducation, \u00e0 la politique et au bonheur, sont encore d\u2019actualit\u00e9. Ainsi, ce s\u00e9minaire se propose de porter un regard r\u00e9trospectif sur les \u0153uvres de ces femmes et de ces hommes issu.e.s de diff\u00e9rents champs disciplinaires (tels que la philosophie, la litt\u00e9rature, la th\u00e9ologie, la physiologie et la m\u00e9decine) qui s\u2019engag\u00e8rent dans des discussions li\u00e9es aux probl\u00e9matiques f\u00e9ministes. L\u2019\u00e9tude de ces textes permettra de d\u00e9gager les th\u00e9ories sur l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes qui parviennent encore de nos jours \u00e0 sugg\u00e9rer des id\u00e9es en mesure de r\u00e9pondre aux d\u00e9fis du pr\u00e9sent et aux enjeux de l\u2019avenir.<\/p>\n

2\/ Et la femme cr\u00e9a la philosophie.<\/strong> Le second axe entend contribuer \u00e0 l\u2019actuelle red\u00e9couverte du corpus des femmes philosophes de la premi\u00e8re modernit\u00e9. Il y est question de mettre en lumi\u00e8re ces femmes auteures qui cherch\u00e8rent \u00e0 se positionner au sein des communaut\u00e9s intellectuelles de leur temps, desquelles elles \u00e9taient exclues, ainsi que les approches pluridisciplinaires qu\u2019elles mirent en \u0153uvre afin d\u2019y parvenir. En effet, dans la mesure o\u00f9 les institutions \u00e9ducatives et acad\u00e9miques \u00e9taient r\u00e9serv\u00e9es aux hommes, ces intellectuelles durent chercher d\u2019autres moyens d\u2019apprentissage. Certaines d\u2019entre elles produisirent ainsi des \u0153uvres \u00e0 la fois \u00e9clectiques et originales par rapport au canon dominant. Or, dans la mesure o\u00f9 elles condens\u00e8rent certains d\u00e9bats et certaines questions sur les savoirs qui \u00e9taient en train de s\u2019inventer \u00e0 leur \u00e9poque, ces femmes sont susceptibles de nous offrir un regard nouveau, parfois m\u00eame critique, sur le canon philosophique, scientifique, voire th\u00e9ologique de la premi\u00e8re modernit\u00e9. En ce sens, l\u2019\u00e9tude du corpus des femmes rev\u00eat une valeur fondamentale au sein de l\u2019histoire des id\u00e9es, de la philosophie et des savoirs\u00a0: car si, d\u2019une part, un tel corpus sort des sentiers battus de la litt\u00e9rature acad\u00e9mique, d\u2019autre part, il \u00e9claire sous une autre perspective, \u00e0 la fois, la production des auteurs \u00e9tablis et l\u2019histoire de ces disciplines.<\/p>\n

Argument\u00a0:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This seminar will focus on two main themes: on the one hand, women as philosophical objects and, on the other, women as subjects of philosophy during early modernity (16th-18th centuries).<\/p>\n

1\/ And philosophy created woman. <\/strong>The first axis focuses on the theories of the equality of the sexes, particularly in the context of the querelle des femmes. Although historians agree that such a debate about the difference and identity of the sexes dates back to the early 15th century, some of the questions raised about women’s intellectual, emotional and physical capacities, and their right to access education, politics and happiness, are still relevant today. This seminar will take a retrospective look at the works of men and women from various disciplines (such as philosophy, literature, theology, physiology and medicine) who engaged in discussions related to feminist concerns. A study of these texts will help explore the theories of the equality of the sexes, which are still able today to respond to the challenges of the present and the issues of the future.<\/p>\n

2\/ And woman created philosophy<\/strong>. The second axis aims to contribute to the current reappraisal and retrieval of the corpus of early modern women philosophers. It will focus on women authors who sought to position themselves within the intellectual communities of their time, from which they were excluded, and on the multidisciplinary approaches they implemented to achieve this. Since traditional educational and academic institutions were reserved for men, these women had to seek other means of learning. Some of them thus produced works that were both eclectic and original in relation to the dominant canon. By condensing in their writings certain debates and questions about new forms of knowledge that were emerging at the time, they foster innovative insights about the philosophical, scientific, and even theological canon of early modernity. Hence, the study of the works by women intellectuals is of fundamental value to the history of ideas and knowledge, as well as to the history of philosophy; on the one hand, it opens up new avenues rarely explored in the scholarly literature (despite the progress of the feminist historiographical revision of the philosophical and scientific canon in recent decades), and, on the other, it sheds light on both the production of established authors and the history of these disciplines from a different perspective.<\/p>\n
