[PDF EBOOK EPUB] Becoming Beauvoir: A Life
Description of Becoming Beauvoir: A Life
Review �This powerful, important book offers a necessary and radical, new, evidence-based reading of Simone de Beauvoir's life and work. It unpicks and undermines the extraordinary torrent of belittling and sexist criticism that has been directed at Beauvoir, both in her lifetime and since, and recovers her from Jean-Paul Sartre's shadow to bring her to stand in her own light. This haunting, scholarly, and compelling biography lingers long in the reader's mind.� ?Suzannah Lipscomb FRHS, Professor of History, University of Roehampton, UK�Do we need another biography on Simone de Beauvoir? Definitely! Here we finally have a biography that makes Beauvoir's philosophical ideas the focal point � not her love life. Based on new material, and written with insight, respect and sympathy, Kate Kirkpatrick re-examines Beauvoir's life and demonstrates how it was guided by her own existentialist ideals as well as twisted by her circumstances. A timely and fascinating book!� ?Tove Pettersen, Professor of Philosophy, University of Oslo, Norway. President of the International Simone de Beauvoir Society�Beautifully written and meticulously researched, Kirkpatrick draws on new material to find contradictions in previous accounts of Simone de Beauvoir's biography, including those from Beauvoir herself. Becoming Beauvoir is essential reading for anyone interested not just in Beauvoir's life, but the philosophy within it.� ?Fiona Vera-Gray, Assistant Professor in Sociology, Durham University, UK Read more About the Author Kate Kirkpatrick is Lecturer in Religion, Philosophy and Culture at King's College London, UK. She is the author of several books on Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. Read more
