| Résumé : |
"Stree: Upekshita" is the Hindi translation of "The Second Sex" by Simone de Beauvoir, a foundational work in feminist philosophy, first published in French in 1949 as Le Deuxième Sexe. The Hindi version, Stree: Upekshita, addresses the situation of women through a philosophical, social, and historical lens, critiquing the societal constructs and norms that define and confine women’s roles.
Summary: In "The Second Sex", Simone de Beauvoir explores the concept of women as the "Other" in society. She examines how women have been historically oppressed, marginalized, and subjugated by patriarchal systems. De Beauvoir argues that woman is not born but made—a product of the social and cultural constructs that assign her an inferior role compared to men. The book is divided into two main parts: "Facts and Myths": De Beauvoir explores how women are depicted in myths, literature, and cultural representations. She critiques how society has perpetuated the idea of women as passive, subordinate beings. Through analysis of historical and cultural texts, she shows how women’s roles have been shaped and limited by stereotypes, reducing them to the role of the "other" or "the second sex." "The Experience of the Woman": This part delves deeper into the lived experiences of women, covering topics like sexuality, motherhood, and marriage. De Beauvoir examines how women have been conditioned to accept their roles as caregivers and mothers, while their intellectual, emotional, and professional potential is often ignored or suppressed. She also discusses the economic dependency of women and how this dependency limits their freedom and self-identity. |
