She also received doctorates in theology and philosophy from the University of Fribourg in 19.
Between 19 she taught philosophy in Junior Year Abroad programs in Fribourg, Switzerland. Mary's College/Notre Dame University in 1954. Educated in Catholic schools, she received her first Ph.D. Mary Daly was born in Schenectady, New York, on October 16, 1928. However, she makes interesting strides and interpretations of feminism and society that add to difference thinking and larger discussions on feminism within second wave feminism.Mary Daly (born 1928) was considered the foremost feminist theoretician and philosopher in the United States. Her themes need to be situated within second wave feminism because some of the ideas are dated. Women coming together to support and educate each other is the cornerstone of Daly’s radical feminist reality. Being a feminist and being able to peel back layers of patriarchal oppression is possible due to sisterhood. She sketches a way of knowing that is articulated by this new language and is sensitive to diversity that is produced by and for women.
Daly ultimately creates a language and discourse where women have autonomy. Content analysis, supported by close reading, will be used to trace these theories within Gyn/Ecology: The Metaethics of Radical Feminism.
To analyse this book, the theories from the authors Luce Irigaray, Sandra Harding, Adrienne Rich, and bell hooks are used to find concepts on language and discourse, knowledge production, and feminist community within difference thinking in Daly’s work. The Hag is the radical feminist that facilitates this change and way of being. Daly uses the figure of the Hag to discuss feminist ideas, which can be compared to the contemporary feminist witch. Her work calls for a narrative by, and for women. She writes that this must be done by changing language, re-evaluating knowledge production, rewriting history, and building feminist communities, separate from men. Daly calls for a radical change in society so women can exist outside male control. In her book she writes on how women can resist oppression and fight the patriarchy by analysing and resisting society. In this thesis the book, Gyn/Ecology: The Metaethics of Radical Feminism, by Mary Daly, is researched as an artefact of second wave feminism and how it articulates and reflects ideas on difference thinking.
