Descartes (1596-1650) exchanged fifty-eight letters-thirty-two from Descartes and twenty-six from Elisabeth. Their correspondence contains the only known extant philosophical writings by Elisabeth, revealing her mastery of metaphysics, analytic geometry, and moral philosophy, as well as her keen interest in natural philosophy. The letters are essential reading for anyone interested in Descartes's philosophy, in particular his account of the human being as a union of mind and body, as well as his ethics... 410 0$aOther voice in early modern Europe. 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern$y17th century 610 $aelisabeth of bohemia, royalty, monarchy, descartes, letters, philosophy, analytic geometry, metaphysics, countess palatine, morality, ethics, early modern, feminist theory, women, gender, feminism, education, rights, liberty, freedom, cognition, robert barclay, william penn, quaker, religion, spirituality, mind and body, nonfiction. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern 676 $a193 700 $aElisabeth$cCountess Palatine,$f1618-1680.$01574328 701 $aShapiro$b Lisa$01574329 701 2$aDescartes$b Rene?$f1596-1650.$0340660 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784866903321 996 $aThe correspondence between Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia and Rene?
