Simone de Beauvoir by Toril Moi

Moving from the impact of educational institutions on Beauvoir to her representation of love, desire and sexuality, Toril Moi analyzes the conflicts and contradictions that shape intellectual women's lives. She offers an interpretation of Beauvoir's relationship to Sartre and to other women, and reads Beauvoir as a writer of depression. She also considers Beauvoir the greatest feminist theorist of our century and sees "The Second Sex" as the founding text for materialist feminism.
