This book provides the first in-depth examination of philosophy and feminism in the works of Wittgenstein, exploring the diverse approaches within this emerging field

The four thematic parts are accompanied by an introduction from the editors. They cover the history of ordinary language philosophy, moral and political thought, feminist epistemology and conceptual approaches to gender. Chapters are written by feminist philosophers who question the way in which ordinary language philosophy can enrich moral thought. Authoritative and comprehensive, it increases the visibility of a significant field outside of mainstream philosophy and confirms the continuing impact of Wittgenstein.

Reviews for The Bloomsbury Handbook of Wittgensteinian Feminism

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Wittgensteinian Feminism is philosophical inquiry at its best. The essays reconfigure the busy intersections of ordinary language philosophy, epistemology, and moral, political, and feminist philosophy. There are productive tensions between the essays in this volume, which open new and exciting avenues for exploration on matters of great importance in living. If the goodness of a philosophical text is measured in its usefulness, as Wittgenstein suggests, this book sets a new standard. * Peg O'Connor, Professor of Philosophy and Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies, Gustavus Adolphus College, USA * This is a rich, deep, and revelatory collection of bold new explorations of the philosophy of Wittgenstein, of feminist philosophy, and of possible future interactions between them. It will surely become a central reference point in discussion, research, and university teaching in these areas, both at once and in the years to come. * Sophie-Grace Chappell, Professor of Philosophy, The Open University, United Kingdom *
