Produktinformationen "Simone de Beauvoir"
Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) was a French writer, social theorist, existential philosopher, and activist. She is perhaps most famous for her 1949 treatise, The Second Sex, a foundational work of contemporary feminism. Ahead of her time, she was instrumental in social movements championing the legalisation of abortions in France. Together with her partner, Jean-Paul Sartre, she challenged the cultural and social assumptions of her time. Though she did not consider herself a philosopher, thinking of herself first and foremost as a writer, her influence on contemporary philosophy remains significant. The conception and design behind our bookends stem from Swedish renowned industrial designer, Jan Landqvist and are made in the small town of Gnosjö in the south of Sweden.
