LGBTQ Philosophers and Teachers of Philosophy

Philosophy is the study of human existence, its reality, and how individuals and society interact and organize themselves. The practice has been around, formally and informally, since the beginning of time since humans have always had the capacity to contemplate their existence in their wider world.

Because philosophy encompasses the realms of the political and the religious, there have been many times that LGBTQ philosophers and their writings have clashed with persons of authority in these areas. For example, Italian LGBTQ philosopher Tommaso Campanella spent 27 years in a Spanish jail where he wrote his greatest works.
