Abstract

This symposium provides five case studies of the ways that John Dewey's philosophy and practice were influenced by women or "weirdoes" (our choices include F.M. Alexander, Albert Barnes, Helen Bradford Thompson, Elsie Riply Clapp, and Jane Addams) and presents some conclusions about the value of dialoging across difference for philosophers and other scholars.
