«Memoiren einer Tochter aus gutem Hause» is the autobiography of Simone de Beauvoir, published by Rowohlt Taschenbuch in paperback (347 pages, in German).
In these memoirs, Simone de Beauvoir reconstructs her childhood and youth in a French bourgeois family and her distancing from the values of her class. The account includes her studies, friendships and first relationships, and culminates in her encounter with Jean-Paul Sartre, in a Paris stirred by the political and intellectual life of the 1920s.
First volume of the Beauvoir: Memoiren series. Original work: «Mémoires d'une jeune fille rangée» (1958); German translation by Eva Rechel-Mertens.
Will appeal to readers of biographies and memoirs, and to those who wish to approach the thought of Simone de Beauvoir and the French intellectual milieu of the twentieth century.
Simone Lucie Ernestine Marie Bertrand de Beauvoir was a French existentialist philosopher, writer, social theorist, and feminist activist. Though she did not consider herself a philosopher, nor was she considered one at the time of her death, she had a significant influence on both feminist existentialism and feminist theory.
