Women

This book articulates philosophical concerns in the work of five well known twentieth century women writers, including writers of color. Duran traces the development of philosophical themes - ontological, ethical and feminist - in the writings of Margaret Drabble, Virginia Woolf, Simone de Beauvior, Toni Cade Bambara and Elena Poniatowska presenting both a general overview of the authors work with an emphasis on traditional philosophical questions and a detailed feminist reading of the work.
