DUTSCH, D. M., Pythagorean Women Philosophers. Between Belief and Suspicion. Oxford University Press, 2020. 320p. Hardback. Series: Oxford Studies in Classical Literature and Gender Theory. Rather than seeking to establish the authenticity or otherwise of the texts attributed to or about Pythagorean women, Dutsch aims to consider these texts on their own merits, and to establish what they indicate about the gendering of philosophical knowledge in antiquity and the possible construction or acknowledgement of female intellectual possibilities ... her careful analysis of the evidence and her willingness to balance caution with optimism have produced a fascinating account of these challenging texts.
