Reviews

Author Information

Alison Stone is Professor of Philosophy at Lancaster University, UK. Her interests span the history of philosophy, post-Kantian European philosophy, feminist philosophy, and aesthetics. Her books include Being Born: Birth and Philosophy (2019), Frances Power Cobbe (2022) and Women Philosophers in Nineteenth-Century Britain (2023). Charlotte Alderwick is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at UWE Bristol. Her monograph Schelling's Ontology of Powers (2021) connects the history of philosophy with contemporary metaphysis; this is indicative of her philosophical approach. Charlotte is now working on Eco-philosophy and the contribution that historical philosophies of nature can make to this area.
