"De N's Bespiegelingen is remarkable for two reasons. First, she was one of the few writers in the Dutch Republic who used the Wolffian deductive method in order to prove the immortality of the soul. Second, her position as a woman philosopher was unique, as only few women possessed such a thorough knowledge of contemporary philosophy and natural sciences. {ref. PJ de Timmerman and Betje Wolff}
