I
am working on a Western Traditions
paper and these 3 authors are
being debated about if they
are a feminist or not, could
you help?
Virginia Woolf
Sarah Stickney Ellis
Simone de Beauvoir
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
for your note to FEMINIST.COM
and I'd be happy to add my two
cents to your paper:
Virginia
Woolf--was most certainly
a feminist--both in her real
life and in the characters
that she created (i.e. Orlando).
Sarah
Stickney Ellis -- I don't
know her nor can I find any
information on her in the
women's history books I have.
This leads me to believe that
she wasn't a feminist--or
maybe she was a feminist whose
life just wasn't that well
documented.
Simone
de Beauvoir--was most
certainly a feminist. Her
book The Second Sex is like a feminist bible. She was a feminist in what she
preached and in how she lived
her life.
