Description

Simone de Beauvoir was a philosopher and writer of notable range and influence whose work is central to feminist theory, French existentialism, and contemporary moral and social philosophy.

The essays in this 2003 volume examine all the major aspects of her thought, including her views on issues such as the role of biology, sexuality and sexual difference, and evil, the influence on her work of Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, Husserl, and others, and the philosophical significance of her memoirs and fiction.

New readers and nonspecialists will find this the most convenient and accessible guide to Beauvoir currently available.

Advanced students and specialists will find a conspectus of recent developments in the interpretation of Beauvoir.
