The Other Pascals

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the philosophies of Jacqueline Pascal, Gilberte Pascal Périer, and Marguerite Périer, this book highlights their distinct intellectual contributions, often overshadowed by their famous male relative, Blaise Pascal. Rather than merely serving as his disciples or caretakers, each woman cultivated her own philosophical perspective, which is explored in depth. This study offers a fresh examination of their ideas, revealing the significance of their voices in the broader context of philosophical discourse.
