COOPER, A., Amalia Holst: On the Vocation of Woman to Higher Intellectual Education. Oxford University Press, 2023. 224p. Hardback. Series: British Society for the History of Philosophy:New Texts in the History of Philosophy. This excellent translation makes Amalia Holst's important and powerful book available to English-speaking readers for the first time, greatly advancing the recovery of German women philosophers. Andrew Cooper's superb introduction situates Holst in the context of German Enlightenment debates about the purpose of education and the vocation of woman, and carefully compares Holst's position to those of her male and female contemporaries. The book will be invaluable reading for all those seeking to recognise women's contributions to nineteenth-century philosophy.
