'One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman' Simone de Beauvoir
To what extent does our social existence determine who we are? What
is the meaning of sexuality for human existence? What is the
meaning of 'old age'? What is a woman? And what, for that matter,
is a man? Stella Sandford explores the philosophical basis of
Beauvoir's reflections on these and other questions, from her early
moral period, through her post-war philosophical crisis, to the
astounding polymathic studies of her mature thought. She
demonstrates the persistence of the fundamental existential and
ethical questions that drove Beauvoir's work and her constant
revision of her own positions. With a central emphasis on
Beauvoir's major work, The Second Sex, extracts are also taken from
her first philosophical and political essays, as well as The
Mandarins, Old Age and her essay on the Marquis de Sade.
