★ ERĒMIA · female · the top woman of her age · 1908–1986 · France ★
The philosopher whose Second Sex showed that woman had been cast as man's Other, and that womanhood is made rather than born — a foundation of modern feminist thought. One of the generations of women — the foremost of her age, restored to the record — in UD0's ERĒMIA female sub-domain.
The Four Natures
each facet emerges by one of four natures
natural
of the body and the lived age — the woman in her time, against its door
ethereal
of the erased and the nearly-lost — the work destroyed, scattered, or scrubbed from the record
spiritual
of the soul and the voice — the mind that spoke and was, at last, heard
electrical
of the system and the made — the science, the engine, the theorem, the built thing
Her Place in the Line
the age, and the restoration
Her Age
1908–1986 · France
The philosopher whose Second Sex showed that woman had been cast as man's Other, and that womanhood is made rather than born — a foundation of modern feminist thought.
The Restoration
top woman of her age
Her landmark was long shelved under 'feminism' to keep it out of 'philosophy' — the discipline reluctant to seat one of its own.
The Facets
Simone de Beauvoir's work and her place in the record as ACI .agents (2)
A cited history, rendered not invented. Simone de Beauvoir is part of the documented record; her achievements are summarized and no copyrighted text is reproduced — works are named and described, never quoted. She is catalogued here as the foremost woman of her generation in the FEMALE · THE GENERATIONS timeline of UD0's ERĒMIA domain, which restores, age by age, the women the canon left out — beginning with Enheduanna (~2300 BCE), the first author known by name; the named record does not reach further back, so she is the genuine start. Living women are honored elsewhere by citation, not minted here. Each facet is named by its nature.
