The Sense of a Life: Re-assessing Simone de Beauvoir |
|
| Authors: | Mary Ann Caws |
| Abstract: | Violently differing views on Simone de Beauvoir clash—how not? Our own obsessional reading of and about her is all the more enhanced by her look and manner(s) of dressing, and her affairs, but, above all, by her towering intelligence and pioneering spirit. This piece tries to deal with as many aspects of her being and seeming and appearance to others, as critics and as readers, as behoves such a vital spirit. |
