Political Writings offers an abundance of newly translated essays by Simone de Beauvoir that demonstrate a heretofore unknown side of her political philosophy. The volume traces nearly three decades of Beauvoir's leftist political engagement, from exposés of conditions in fascist Spain and Portugal in 1945 and hard-hitting attacks on right-wing French intellectuals in the 1950s, to the 1962 defense of an Algerian freedom fighter, Djamila Boupa...

Despite growing interest in her philosophy, Simone de Beauvoir remains widely misunderstood. She is typically portrayed as a mere intellectual follower of her companion, Jean-Paul Sartre. In Philosophical Writings, Beauvoir herself shows that nothing could be further from the truth. Beauvoir's philosophical work suffers from a lack of English-language translation or, worse, mistranslation into heavily condensed popular versions. Philosophical ...

Toen Simone de Beauvoir in 1949 «Le deuxième sexe» als tweedelige studie publiceerde, sloeg het boek in als een bom. Dit even radicale als monumentale werk beschreef in vrijmoedige woorden hoezeer het «zwakke» geslacht een historisch maaksel was, een culturele constructie van een door mannen gedomineerde wereld. «De tweede sekse» veroorzaakte een schandaal. Niet alleen in behoudende kring was men geschokt door de onverbloemde behandeling van o...

Con "Il secondo sesso", Simone de Beauvoir affranca la donna dallo status di minore che la obbliga a essere l'Altro dall'uomo, senza avere a sua volta il diritto né l'opportunità di costruirsi come Altra.

Appr...
