Established in 2008 asphiloSOPHIA: A Journal of Continental Feminism, it was "transcontinentalized" in 2018 to broaden its scope and inclusivity.[7] The new subtitle indicates the journal's focus on feminist thought that transcends cultural and philosophical boundaries, emphasizing a commitment to global feminist dialogue rather than a single regional or cultural perspective.
The journal is the product of philoSOPHIA: the Society for Continental Feminism, which was founded in Tennessee in 2008—initially as the French Feminism Circle—byKelly Oliver (Vanderbilt University) and Stacy Keltner (Kennesaw State University). The journal was established in 2011, after the society's third annual conference. The founding co-editors were Elaine Miller and Emily Zakin (Miami University).[8]
According to its founding editors, the society and journal were named afterSophia, the feminine aspect of God who fell from grace because of her love of knowledge.[9] The name serves to illustrate that women who love philosophy are not necessarily in love with thepatriarchy.[10]
Since issue 9.1 (2019), the journal's cover image has been replaced, substituting the previous one with a photo collage by the artistLorna Simpson, calledUnanswerable.
