March is Women's History Month, and we're halfway through the second season of our NEH-supported series spotlighting notable female philosophers of the 20th (and 21st) century. Later this month, appropriately enough, we'll record episodes about Judith Jarvis Thomson and Iris Murdoch, but for now what better time to revisit all those pre-20th century women we profiled in our first season.
