Informationen zum Autor Michele Le Doeuff. Translated by Trista Selous Klappentext "To be a philosopher and to be a feminist are one and the same thing. A feminist is a woman who does not allow anyone to think in her place."-from Hipparchia's ChoiceA work of rare insight and irreverence! Hipparchia's Choice boldly recasts the history of philosophy from the pre-Socratics to the post-Derrideans as one of masculine texts and male problems. The position of women! therefore! is less the result of a hypothetical "femininity" and more the fault of exclusion by men. Nevertheless! women have been and continue to be drawn to "the exercise of thought." So how does a female philosopher become a conceptually adventurous woman? Focusing on the work of Sartre and Beauvoir (specifically! his sexism and her relation to it)! Michèle Le Doeuff shows how women philosophers can reclaim a place for feminist concerns. Is The Second Sex a work of philosophy! and! if so! what can it teach us about the relation of philosophy to experience? Now with a new epilogue! Hipparchia's Choice points the way toward a discipline that is accountable to history! feminism! and society. Zusammenfassung Takes on the history of philosophy! viewing it as a history of masculine texts and male problems and questioning its social and legislative conclusions. This work argues that the position of women in philosophy is a question of exclusion by men rather than! as some suggest! of a hypothetically imminent "femininity."
