Books by Andrea Nye

Few women's voices have survived from the antiquity period, but evidence shows that, especially in the area of religion, women were influential in Greek culture.

In the past decade there has been an explosion of feminist theory - in many cases depending on theoretical foundations borrowed from men. Andrea Nye critically examines the ambivalent relationship between feminists and male theory.

This volume concerns the work of three 20th-century women thinkers: Rosa Luxemburg, Simone Weil and Hannah Arendt. It explores their views on justice, knowledge, the self, divinity, and the way philosophical problems have been framed in the mainstream masculine tradition.

introduces fundamental topics in modern philosophy from a feminist perspective. It takes the student through the subject step by step by looking at the main thinkers most usually examined on a course in modern philosophy and by examining the role of gender in studying classic philosophical texts.
