Twin-volume alert: Hoping two vols – some 6 lb of solid research – on women #philosopers in the #19thCentury will leave a mark on the field. Thanks to @lydiamoland.bsky.social and Alison Stone for their superb editorship. Challenging a male-dominated canon, one page at a time.

The Great Courses Plus has remastered digitally Thomas Noble’s “The Foundations of Western Civilization”. It looks fantastic! I hope more remasterings are coming of back-catalog classics. @kevinmanzel.bsky.social?

Hey. There's zero percent chance of your brain falling out if you choose to have open-ended, philosophical discussions that don't conform to rigid categories & institutionally provided parameters.

@drdanvers.bsky.social not only is this a book on an undeservedly forgotten philosopher, it’s beautifully written. @emilyherring.bsky.social has done a fantastic job.
Nice article on this recent Bergson biography. Looks like a good book to add to my list!
