\nIn the history of philosophy\, most of th e ‘great’ philosophers engaged with questions about women’s ‘nature’ and t he appropriate role for women in the family\, society\, and state.
\nHobbes\, however\, seems to have far less to say on the subject than most \, and what he does say is often ambiguous or paradoxical.
\nIt is a fundamental tenet of Hobbes’s political theory that all people are equal in the state of nature\, women included\; yet he makes reference to the ge neral superiority of men as regards physical strength\, courage\, wit\, an d suitability for rule.
\nHobbes denies the naturalness\, inevitabil ity\, and godliness of patriarchy\, and he even argues for natural materna l right\; however\, he describes families in civil societies in terms of f athers ruling over their servants and children—leaving women out of the pi cture altogether.
\nHis texts are peppered with various offhan d comments\, allusions\, and intimations about women and sexuality more ge nerally\, many of which are provocative and undeveloped.
\n< span>One of the most intriguing parts of his analysis is his repeated appe al to the example of the ancient Amazonian warrior women who engaged in pr ocreative contracts with men from neighboring tribes.
\n\n
In this paper\, the speaker uses Hobbes’s discussion of the Am azons to examine his views about gender and\, thereby\, his place in the h istory of philosophy as seen from a feminist perspective.
