van Bunge e.a. 2003, p. 986-7:
"P.J. de T. had an extraordinary knowledge of the Exact sciences and philosophy. [...] According to Hennert's [= her husband's] biography, in which she is described as the ideal enlightened woman who managed to combine household tasks with intellectual activities, she read Van Musschenbroek, Nollet, Reaumur, Leibniz, Mendelssohn, Reimarus and Bonnet. Her favourite philosopher was, however, Christian Wolff [just like...] C.L. de Neufville, one of the few other eighteenth-century women who had an in-depth knowledge of contemporary philosophy."
