Jacqueline Broad presents a new account of the philosophy of Mary Astell (1666-1731), which situates Astell’s feminist, political, and religious views in the context of her wider philosophical vision. She argues that at the heart of Astell’s thought lies a theory of virtue which emphasises generosity of character, benevolence, and moderation.
