Abstract
In this article, I examine the philosophical anthropology - the ideas on mind-body relations - behind Jean Paul's presentation of women in his fictional writings. First, I discuss his unflattering association of women with the body in his early satires and Siebenkäs. With reference to Titan, I then suggest that he reaches a more favourable view of female physiology and psychology in his sentimental fiction. Throughout, I relate his views on women's anthropology to those of his contemporaries.
