Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy is an academic journal that covers feminist philosophy. As of July 2008, the editorial office is hosted by the Simpson Center for the Humanities at the University of Washington. The editors are Alison Wylie (University of Washington) and Lori Gruen (Wesleyan University).
Hypatia has its roots in the Society for Women in Philosophy. Its founding editor was Azizah al-Hibri, who started it in 1982 as "piggy back" issues of the Women's Studies International Forum before it became an independent journal in 1986. The journal is named after Hypatia of Alexandria, an ancient Greek philosopher, who taught in the fields of mathematics, astronomy, and astrology.
The journal is published quarterly; typically two issues a year are guest edited thematic special issues.
