ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Martha C. Nussbaum

Martha C. Nussbaum (1947) é uma das filósofas mais importantes dos Estados Unidos. Interessa-se particularmente por filosofia grega, filosofia política, ética, feminismo e direitos dos animais. Publicou dezenas de livros e centenas de artigos, tendo recebido inúmeros prémios, entre os quais o Prémio Kyoto de Artes e Filosofia (2016) e o Prémio Berggruen (2018). O seu estilo, elegante e fluído, é uma provocação à prosa filosófica, que julga abstrata e de uma insipidez prejudicial, além de desligada dos problemas de seu tempo.
