Uit
de Inleiding [het 1e hoofdstuk]
“In
the tradition of the ASCP, the 2017 conference hosted a plenary honouring the
work of a significant Australasian philosopher, and on this occasion, the focus
was on the extensive and diverse feminist philosophy of Professor Moira Gatens.
The
three articles celebrating Gatens’ work reflect the depth of her contribution
across social and political philosophy, feminist philosophy, early modern
philosophy, and philosophy and literature.
Louise
Richardson-Self starts with Gatens’ ground-breaking 1983 publication “A
Critique of the Sex/Gender Distinction,” and reads the central themes of this
article, embodiment and social imaginaries, in relation to Gatens’ subsequent
work.
Timothy Laurie examines the ways that Gatens situates knowledge claims
and speech acts within specific conditions of community formation, focusing on
the way that “monstrous” ideologies and beliefs might be subject to
contextualisation, without resorting to the static models of group consensus.
In the final commentary on Gatens.
Simone
Bignall examines the contribution that Gatens makes to Spinoza studies. Bignall
examines how Gatens works through Spinoza to articulate her concept of
“imaginary bodies” in order to think about power, freedom and the right, and
then examines the ways that Gatens uses this foundation to consider
institutional arrangements of power. Finally,
Bignall shows that Gatens is not only an exemplary feminist thinker but also
“an imaginative philosopher whose associative methodology creates new
possibilities for thought,” and who “presents a reconception of philosophy as a
genre and a practice that strives to exert an imaginative power capable of
changing and reshaping reality itself.”
