The overall objective of WHENCE is to uncover and critically assess women’s intellectual contribution to the Nordic Enlightenment.
Research activities
At INSPIRE, we execute a wide range of research activities and offer different educational resources.
INSPIRE promotes cutting-edge interdisciplinary research to uncover and emphasize the philosophical contributions of women across historical periods. Our research includes the exploration of neglected texts and marginalized voices, the investigation of the intellectual accomplishments of women philosophers, and critical reflections on the representation of women philosophers and on historiographical categories.
