Abstract

As Professor Burns has shown, even though Hume did not offer an explicit, exhaustive treatment of “The Women Question”, there are many passages in which he explains principles or facts related to the status of women. Generally speaking, and on this I fully agree with Professor Burns, the “Humean Female” qualifies as an expression of what we call today a male chauvinist position.
