Gabrielle Suchon deserves a place on the syllabus next year as well as in the philosophical canon because she was not only one of the first feminist philosophers, but her arguments are also perfectly structured and pertain to debates still alive today. These involve freedom, autonomy, education, and the status of women. In her books Treatise on Ethics and Politics and On the Celibate Life Freely Chosen, she presents rigorous arguments that women have a natural right to liberty, self-determination, and education. Her arguments are not emotional appeals or social commentary but carefully developed philosophical analyses. She draws on many philosophical theories that men used to suppress women and uses reason to expose their weaknesses. In teaching Suchon, students have the chance to see that the philosophical canon is not fixed or inevitable. They learn it is shaped by power and the drive for social change. This awareness is itself philosophically valuable, but even more valuable is her unique philosophical perspective and her strong personal drive to expand women’s intellectual and moral possibilities.
