Why is philosophy so male-dominated? Did female philosophers exist in ancient times? (Yes.) Dr Dawn LaValle Norman talks about the presence and role of women in Ancient philosophical dialogues and how it relates to her project, The Diotima Prize. This playwriting competition seeks to address the lack of women featured in philosophical dialogues. Dawn explains who the priestess and philosopher Diotima was, as she appears through Socrates in Plato's The Symposium. She also tells us about other fascinating and prominent women of ancient philosophy and literature, like Sappho, Nossis, Aspasia of Miletus, Macrina the Younger, and Hypatia of Alexandria. Dr Dawn LaValle Norman is a Senior Research Fellow at the Australian Catholic University. Website: https://thediotimaprize.com/ Broadcast on 7 March 2023.
