Introduction: Women and the History of Philosophy

This introduction aims to briefly outline some of the ways in which women have been historically excluded from the history of philosophy, and the ways in which recent developments are addressing that neglect and exclusion. It also outlines ways in which women were in fact included in the historiography of philosophy in the 17th century itself, the period in question.
