«Memorias de una joven formal» is the autobiography of Simone de Beauvoir, published by Edhasa in paperback (376 pages, in Spanish).
Simone de Beauvoir recalls her childhood and youth in a French Catholic bourgeois family that expects nothing more of her than to become a proper young lady. Faced with these expectations, she narrates her gradual rebellion: reading, friendships, and the awakening of an intellectual and existentialist vocation, with Jean-Paul Sartre as a fellow student.
Work originally published in 1958 as «Mémoires d'une jeune fille rangée»; this 1980 edition belongs to the Narrativas contemporáneas collection.
Aimed at readers of memoirs and biographies, and those who follow twentieth-century feminist and existentialist thought.
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.
