Product Description
This long-awaited volume gathers together all the classic critical texts on Simone de Beauvoir's work as a feminist, novelist and philosopher. The essays are divided into three sections examining her fiction, her life and her famous work The Second Sex. In a compelling introduction Elizabeth Fallaize examines how de Beauvoir's work has been read over time, contextualises those readings within the evolution of feminism, and looks at her changing role within contemporary culture and thought. The contributors to this collection include: Hazel Barnes, Jane Heath, Elaine Marks, Ann Ophir, Francis Jeanson, Alex Hughes, Poirot-Delphech, Nourissier Francois, Francois Mauriac, Judith Oakley, Michele Le Doeuff, Penny Forster and Imogen Sutton, and Toril Moi.
