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), Michle 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694538424608,"sku":"NEW0231138954","price":35.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71-Yo8hrrUL.jpg?v=1779379861","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/hipparchias-choice-an-essay-concerning-women-philosophy-etc-0231138954","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
