ABSTRACT Some scholars have identified a puzzle in the writings of Mary Astell (1666–1731), a deeply religious feminist thinker of the early modern period. On the one hand, Astell strongly urges her fellow women to preserve their independence of judgement from men; yet, on the other, she insists upon those same women maintaining a submissive deference to the Anglican church. These two positions appear to be incompatible. In this paper, I propose a historical-contextualist solution to the puzzle: I argue that the seeming inconsistency can be dispelled through a close examination of (i) the concepts of selfhood and self-government in Anglican women’s devotional texts of the period, and of (ii) the role that these concepts play in Astell’s feminist arguments.

近代早期女性宗教著作中的自我与自治

摘要 一些学者在玛丽·阿斯特尔(Mary Astell,1666-1731 年)的著作中发现了一个谜团,她是近代早期一位虔诚的女权主义思想家。一方面,阿斯特尔强烈敦促她的女性同胞保持对男性判断的独立性;然而,另一方面,她坚持要求这些女性对英国国教教会保持顺从的尊重。这两个立场似乎不相容。在这篇论文中,我提出了一个解决这个难题的历史语境主义解决方案:我认为可以通过仔细研究(i)那个时期英国圣公会妇女虔诚文本中的自我和自治概念来消除表面上的不一致。 (ii) 这些概念在 Astell 的女权主义论点中所起的作用。
