The Independent Woman
The Independent Woman: Extracts from The Second Sex | Simone de Beauvoir
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Like man, woman is a human being. When The Second Sex was first published in Paris in 1949groundbreaking, risqu, brilliantly written and strikingly modernit provoked both outrage and inspiration. The Independent Woman contains three key chapters of Beauvoirs masterwork, which illuminate the feminine condition and identify practical social reforms for gender equality. It captures the essence of the spirited manifesto that switched on light bulbs in the heads of a generation of women and continues to exert profound influence on feminists today.
