Simone de Beauvoir's existential phenomenology and philosophy of history in Le deuxième sexe

Eva Gothlin

pp. 41-51

In this chapter it is underlined that Beauvoir belongs to the existential-phenomenological tradition, but that Le deuxième sexe also involves a philosophy of history inspired by Hegel and Marx. Her thinking thus has an existential as well as an historical dimension. In some respects, Beauvoir "s phenomenology is closer to Heidegger's than to Husserl's.
