• Sommario/riassunto: By turns surprising and revelatory, this volume presents freshly discovered writings and lectures while providing new translations and contexts for Simone de Beauvoir's more familiar writings. Spanning her career from the 1940's to 1986, the pieces explain the paradoxes in her political and feminist stances, including her famous 1972 announcement of a 'conversion to feminism' after decades of activism on behalf of women.
