What is a Woman? - And Other Essays (Paperback, New edition)


What is a woman? And what does it mean to be a feminist today? In her first full-scale engagement with feminist theory since her internationally renowned Sexual/Textual Politics (1985), Toril Moi challenges the dominant trends in contemporary feminist and cultural thought, arguing for a feminism of freedom inspired by Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex. A sustained refusal to lay down theoretical or political requirements for femininity, What is a Woman? is a deeply original contribution to feminist theory.
