        The dissertation The Woman Movement from the Point of View of Social Consciousness by Jessie Taft —written in 1913, published in 1915— "is perhaps the first doctoral thesis written on a feminist topic" (Seigfried, 1996, p. 46). However, this text has received little attention in the genealogies of both feminism and pragmatism. This article aims to defend the originality of Taft’s approach and the historical value of her thesis as an example of the ideological debates within the feminist movement. A biographical, historical, and literary contextualization of the thesis will be provided, followed by an assessment of her methodological decisions and argumentative strategies. This analysis will highlight the many gaps in the philosophical-political interpretation of the thesis, which can now only be filled speculatively, in the hope that more comprehensive and detailed future research will shed further light on the matter.
        La disertación de Jessie Taft The Woman Movement from the Point of View of Social Consciousness —escrita en 1913, publicada en 1915— es, de acuerdo con Charlene Haddock Seigfried (1996), la primera tesis doctoral escrita sobre un tema feminista. Sin embargo, este texto ha recibido poca atención tanto en las genealogías del feminismo como del pragmatismo. Este artículo se propone defender la originalidad del planteamiento de Taft y el valor histórico de su tesis como muestra de los debates ideológicos dentro del movimiento feminista. Se ofrecerá una contextualización biográfica, histórica y literaria de la tesis, para luego sopesar sus decisiones metodológicas y sus estrategias argumentativas. Este análisis pondrá de manifiesto los múltiples vacíos en la interpretación filosófico-política de la tesis, que ahora solo podrán rellenarse especulativamente, con la esperanza de que una investigación futura más completa y pormenorizada pueda arrojar más luz al respecto.
