For most of the period after the founding of the Journal of the History of Philosophy, its articles (and its submissions) were dominated by papers on a small coterie of philosophers — Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Spinoza, Hume, and Kant. In more recent years, the Journal has sought to publish on lesser-studied and non-canonical philosophers. Some of these recent offerings include:
