Professor Sandrine Bergès recently presented the Annual Antognazza Lecture at the Literary and Philosophical Library in Newcastle (United Kingdom). In her talk, she revisited Mary Astell’s analogy of marriage as a form of slavery, placing it within the broader context of transatlantic slavery and its philosophical implications. The lecture series, organized by the British Society for the History of Philosophy (BSHP), honors the memory of the distinguished historian of philosophy, Professor Maria Rosa Antognazza (1964-2023).
