Book excerpt: Au xviiie siècle, la figure insistante de la «femme philosophe» s'articule à un imaginaire ambivalent de la différence des sexes, entre hantise d'une confusion délétère et quête d'un modèle d'harmonie. La femme travestit-elle la philosophie? Les Lumières ont-elles un genre?
Download or read book Women Moralists in Early Modern France written by Julie Candler Hayes and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-03 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early modern women writers left their mark in multiple domains--novels, translations, letters, history, and science. Although recent scholarship in literary and cultural studies has enriched our understanding of these accomplishments, less attention has been paid to other forms of women's writing. Women Moralists in Early Modern France explores the contributions of seventeenth and eighteenth-century French women philosophers and intellectuals to moralist writing, the observation of human motives and behavior. This distinctively French genre draws on philosophical and literary traditions extending back to classical antiquity. Moralist short forms such as the maxim, dialogue, character portrait, and essay engage social and political questions, epistemology, moral psychology, and virtue ethics. Although moralist writing was closely associated with the salon culture in which women played a major role, women's contributions to the genre have received scant scholarly attention. Julie Candler Hayes examines major moralist writers such as Madeleine de Scud?ry, Anne-Th?r?se de Lambert, ?milie Du Ch?telet, and Germaine de Sta?l, as well as nearly two dozen of their contemporaries. Their reflections range from traditional topics such as the nature of the self, friendship, happiness, and old age, to issues that were very much part of their own lifeworld, such as the institution of marriage and women's nature and capabilities. Each chapter traces the evolution of women's moralist thought on a given topic from the late seventeenth century to the Enlightenment and the decades immediately following the French Revolution, a period of tremendous change in the horizon of possibilities for women as public figures and intellectuals. Hayes demonstrates how, through their critique of institutions and practices, their valorization of introspection and self-expression, and their engagement with philosophical issues, women moralists carved out an important space for the public exercise of their reason.

Book excerpt: Paru en 1690, Mulierum philosopharum historia répare une double injustice. Injustice d'abord faite à l'auteur, Gilles Ménage (1613-1692), grand latiniste, grammairien éclairé et précepteur de Madame de Sévigné et de Madame de Lafayette. Injustice, ensuite, faite aux femmes qui pensent depuis l'Antiquité... Ménage, à l'instar de Villon l'érudit, rapporte ici la vie de bien des dames du temps jadis, qu'elles appartiennent aux grands courants de la philosophie grecque ou qu'elles aient préféré la pensée libre, sans affiliation à une école. D'entre les meilleures, citons les Aspasie, les Diotime, Anthuse, Hypathie, Arété, Nicarète, Hyparchie, Hestia, Théodora, Léonce, et autre Thémistoclée, sans oublier l'intrépide et hautaine Timycha, qui se coupa la langue pour la cracher à la face de Denys le tyran. Comme le rappelle si justement Claude Tarrène dans sa préface, la femme-philosophe remonte bien à la plus Haute Antiquité gréco-latine.

Book excerpt: « On ne naît pas femme, on le devient. » : cette formule du Deuxième Sexe devenue mythique illustre à merveille le parcours hors-norme de Simone de Beauvoir. Comment la sage jeune fille rangée, issue de la bonne bourgeoisie parisienne est-elle devenue écrivaine et philosophe, engagée aux côtés de Sartre, dans la défense de l'existentialisme ? Comment celle qui incarne aujourd'hui encore une icône du féminisme moderne a-t-elle vécu des amours complexes et multiples, entre un amour nécessaire la liant pendant plus de cinquante ans à Sartre, et des amours contingentes et néanmoins passionnées avec de multiples partenaires ? Derrière le personnage fantasmé de la grande Sartreuse, de la prêtresse de l'engagement, ou de la pasionaria du féminisme, qui est vraiment Simone de Beauvoir ? SOMMAIRE : INTRODUCTION I.

Download or read book Ovid in French written by Helena Taylor and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays examines the ways Ovid's diverse œuvre has been translated, rewritten, adapted, and responded to by a range of French and Francophone women from the Renaissance to the present. It aims to reveal lesser-known voices in Ovidian reception studies, and to offer a wider historical perspective on the complex question of Ovid and gender. Ranging from Renaissance poetry to contemporary creative-criticism, it charts an understudied strand of reception studies, emphasizing how a longer view allows us to explore and challenge the notion of a female tradition of Ovidian reception. The range of genres analysed here—poetry, verse and prose translation, theatre, epistolary fiction, autofiction, autobiography, film, creative critique, and novels—also reflect the diversity of the Ovidian texts in reception from the Heroides to the Metamorphoses, from the Amores to the Ars Amatoria, from the Tristia to the Fasti. The study brings an array of critical approaches to bear on well-known authors such as George Sand, Julia Kristeva, and Marguerite Yourcenar, as well as less-known figures, from contemporary writer Linda Lê to the early modern Catherine and Madeline Des Roches, exploring exile, identity, queerness, displacement, voice, expectations of modesty, the poetics of translation, and the problems posed by Ovid's erotized violence, to name just some of the volume's rich themes. The epilogue by translator and novelist Marie Cosnay points towards new eco-critical and creative directions in Ovidian scholarship and reception. Students and scholars of French Studies, Classics, Comparative Literature and Translation Studies will find much to interest them in this diverse collection of essays.

Download or read book Women in the French Enlightenment written by Anna Maria Marchini and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with philosophical, scientific, and ideological images of women during the French Enlightenment, examining their emergence in the reflections of the philosophes, in Catholic morality, in biological and medical knowledge, in novels, in periodicals, and in the law. Alongside the appeals for social and intellectual emancipation advanced by the femmes savantes, typical of the eighteenth-century salons, a new conception pertaining to women’s social role related to the affirmation of the bourgeoisie and of its model of the family took place. Codified in a more complex and organized way within the Rousseauian philosophy, this new conception spread in various cultural debates, gaining a real hegemony: women were meant to be excluded from any "public" space, devoid of cultural aspirations, and only devoted to satisfying the needs of the family. The book adopts a multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and synthetic approach and at the same time highlights the "roots" of some fundamental ways of considering women that are still active in present-day society. It also addresses researchers in the history of philosophy, sociology, literature, and gender studies, and readers with an interest in women’s issues.
Download or read book poque milienne written by Ruth Edith Hagengruber and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 555 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book contextualizes Du Châtelet’s contribution to the philosophy of her time. The editor offers this tribute to an Époque Émiliennee as a collection of innovative papers on Emilie Du Châtelet’s powerful philosophy and legacy. Du Châtelet was an outstanding figure in the era she lived in. Her work and achievements were unique, though not an exception in the 18th century, which did not lack outstanding women. Her personal intellectual education, her scholarly network and her mental acumen were celebrated in her time, perceiving her to have “multiplied nine figures by nine figures in her head”. She was able to gain access to institutions which were normally denied to women. To call an epoch an Époque Émilienne may be seen as daring and audacious, but it will not be the last time if we continue to bring women philosophers back into the memory of the history of philosophy. The contributors paid attention to the philosophical state of the art, which forms the background to Du Châtelet’s philosophy. They follow the transformation of philosophical concepts under her pen and retrace the impact of her ideas. The book is of interest to scholars working in the history of philosophy as well as in gender studies. It is of special interest for scholars working on the 18th century, Kant, Leibniz, Wolff, Newton and the European Enlightenment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How was the nature of women redefined and debated during the French Enlightenment? Instead of treating the Enlightenment in the usual manner, as a challenge to orthodox ideas and social conventions, Lieselotte Steinbrugge interprets it as a deviation from a position staked out in the seventeenth century, namely, "the mind has no sex.".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Souvent oubliées, volontairement exclues ou même ostracisées, les femmes philosophes sont pourtant nombreuses à contribuer à l’histoire des idées. Chacune à leur manière, elles ont affronté et affrontent encore aujourd’hui les obstacles religieux, socioculturels et politiques, parfois au péril de leur vie. De la liberté religieuse à la liberté de pensée, de la légitimité du désir à la soif du savoir, de l’égalité et la justice à la fluidité des genres, en passant par une nouvelle conception de la famille, l’apport des femmes en philosophie reste marginalisé, voire ignoré. Afin de souligner leur combat, l’écrivaine et philosophe Maya Ombasic raconte le destin de 21 héroïnes avec poésie, sensibilité et humanisme dans cette fiction documentaire richement illustrée. En questionnant l’ordre établi avec des postures parfois subversives, toutes ces femmes philosophes participent à l’évolution des sociétés et des mœurs en léguant aux générations futures les bases d’une réflexion sans cesse réinventée.
