PHI 248 Gender, Knowledge, and Reality

Course Description

This is a course in feminist philosophy. Our readings and discussions will traverse a wide terrain of issues including the sex/gender distinction, the influence of bias, power, and politics on the creation and acquisition of knowledge, the value of what has been regarded as "women's work," and some of the many ways reality is not merely given but constructed. Feminist philosophy grounds itself in concrete practice, which means we will have ample opportunity to explore contemporary issues. RSAP, Offered occasionaly.
