	Simone de Beauvoir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Simone Lucie-Ernestine-Marie-Bertrand de Beauvoir was born on January 9, 1908 in Paris to Georges Bertrand and Françoise (Brasseur) de Beauvoir.
		In 1943, de Beauvoir published L'Invitée (She Came to Stay, 1943), a fictionalized chronicle of her lesbian relationship with Olga Kosakiewicz, one of her students in the Rouen secondary school where she taught during the early 30s.
		De Beauvoir says that this attitude has limited women's success by maintaining the perception that they are a deviation from the normal, and are outsiders attempting to emulate "normality".

	BEVERSTEIN ON: SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR
		De Beauvoir, it was implied as much as stated, was the mother-figure to generations of women, a symbol of all that they could be, and a powerful demonstration of a life of freedom and autonomy (Evans 1).
		De Beauvoir's experience with space and nature is the final key relationship that was instrumental in shaping her ideas and convictions as an adult.
		De Beauvoir's sexual relationship with Sartre was defined and defended in light of the existential emphasis on the invaluable importance of freedom as an individual.

	Beauvoir, Simone de [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Simone de Beauvoir was born on January 9, 1908 in Paris to Georges Bertrand de Beauvoir and Françoise (née) Brasseur.
		Beauvoir, on the contrary, always wanted to be a writer and a teacher, rather than a mother and a wife and pursued her studies with vigor.
		Beauvoir had been a deeply religious child as a result of her education and her mother's training, however, at the age of 14, she had a crisis of faith and decided definitively that there was no God.

	Simone de Beauvoir
		Fragile in that Beauvoir's philosophical legacy will be entangled with the fate of existentialism and feminism and with emerging judgments regarding the viability of a feminism that invokes existentialist categories, and of an existentialism that attends to the questions of embodied subjectivity through the lens of the question of woman/women.
		Beauvoir's argument for ethical freedom proceeds concretely by analyzing the ways in which the adult's existence as a moral agent is conditioned by the fact that we all begin as children who find themselves embedded in a world already endowed with meaning.
		Whether or not Beauvoir understood herself to be inaugurating this distinction, whether or not she followed this distinction to its logical/radical conclusions, or whether or not radical conclusions are justified are currently matters of feminist debate.

		Beauvoir wrote the work at a time when the final outcome of World War II was still unknown, but in the character of Jean she gave her support to the French Resistance.
		De Beauvoir had met Algren in 1947 in the United States where she was on a lecture tour.
		Beauvoir recalled in her memoirs, that once when Raymond Aron and Sartre had a series of conversations, she was excluded because her "mind moved too slowly for them." In general, Beauvoir differed from Sartre with her focusing on women's condition and tracing of sociopolitical, economic and ideological conditions behind freedom.

		Sartre and Beauvoir’s correspondence, in which they anatomised their sexual conquests, represented a mode of mutual confession or transparency, sealing the pact they had made to be the only ‘necessary’ beings to each other’s lives.
		Simone de Beauvoir was the daughter of impoverished conservative, upper-middle-class parents, who, in the first volume of Beauvoir’s autobiography, Mémoires d’une jeune fille rangée [Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter] (1958), are characterised as personifying the classic gender fissure in French culture between Catholic belief (her mother) and religious scepticism (her father).
		Though Beauvoir certainly rejected the religious teaching she received through her Catholic education, the theology she studied at her primary and secondary Catholic schools from 1913-1926 formed the secure basis of her philosophical training and ignited her passion for philosophy.

		In doing this, de Beauvoir argues, against Sartre, that there are circumstances when Bad Faith (Sartre’s most famous contribution defined as the phenomenon of self-deception) does not apply: in circumstances when one is unable to recognise the potential freedom in one’s situation.
		Similarly, de Beauvoir shows that women, in living attuned to the world of the other, were ignorant of their own ability to recognise freedom.
		De Beauvoir has only recently begun to be taken seriously as a philosopher, though her work has shown all along that she not only supported Sartre’s argument but that she made significant new contributions.
