ABSTRACT
This article explores the contributions of Anne Conway and Émilie Du Châtelet to the philosophy of time and space. While the two figures have divergent concerns, in pursuit of these concerns they each generate deep insights about time and space, which warrant further study and analysis. In particular, they both conceived space and time within traditional boundaries, though in ways that fit their respective philosophical projects. More important than any sweeping agenda for science among early modern women philosophers, their significant contributions provided much (often anonymously and against great odds) to the project of natural philosophy in the early modern era.
