Abstract

jsp university of scranton The Society for Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy (SPEP) and I became feminists at the same time; this is hardly a coincidence, as the events of SPEP more than twenty-five years ago shaped my understanding of philosophy, feminism, and myself as a feminist philosopher and activist. I am most grateful to the members of SPEP's Committee on the Status of Women (CSW) who organized the "Women and Feminist Scholarship in SPEP and Philosophy: Assessing the Past and Imagining the Future" panel and even more grateful to the women and men of SPEP who organized and initiated the changes that helped make SPEP what it is today. The occasion of SPEP's fiftieth anniversary is a time to both celebrate SPEP's history and analyze how it has transformed and grown over time; it is also a time for us to take stock and envision what SPEP should and could be in the future. While SPEP and I became feminists at the same time, my own transformation has been more thoroughgoing than that of SPEP. There remain issues that still require our attention, and the best way to honor and recognize the work of those who transformed SPEP
