Abstract

In this thesis, I will examine the history of feminism and philosophy and how they intersect. I will observe how these connections have have informed our thought today. I will look at how our ideas about the body have changed or stayed the same and how feminism understands gendered embodiment. To conclude, I will look at how women's space might serve as an answer to the possible questions feminists ask today.
