The Female Voice in Ancient Philosophical Dialogues

这个项目旨在概念化和传播一项重大创新在古代世界中是如何被接受的，当时女性首次开始成为男性和女性的智力榜样。这个项目将创造一个关于女性知识分子800多年历史的开创性叙事。预期的结果是一部关于妇女在古代世界知识生活中所起作用的新的历史，以及对她们的声音如何在哲学和美好生活的某些问题上被用作权威的新的理解。此外，反思这一创新在历史上是如何被接受的，将有助于现代努力促进男性和女性的社会凝聚力，特别是在智力生活中。

This project aims to conceptualise and communicate how a major innovation was accepted in the ancient world, when women for the first time began to serve as intellectual role-models for both men and women. This project will create a ground-breaking narrative of female intellectuals over 800 years of history. The expected outcome is a new history of the role women played in the intellectual life in the ancient world, and a new understanding of how their voices were used as authorities on certain issues in philosophy and the good life. In addition, reflection on how this innovation was accepted historically will help modern attempts to advance the social cohesion of men and women, especially in the intellectual life.
