TITLE:

PAGES: 124
BIG AREA: Ciências Humanas
AREA: Filosofia
SUMMARY:

This dissertation aims to analyze the relationship between otherness and subjectivity through a comparison of the essays and novels of Simone de Beauvoir. Focusing on the role of childhood in the formation of the individual and its influence on otherness, this work seeks to highlight the significance of Beauvoir's philosophical contributions beyond gender discussions, aligning them with both existentialist and phenomenological inquiries. Additionally, the study particularly concentrates on two crucial aspects of the philosopher's works: literature as a means of philosophical expression and violence as a component of intersubjective relations. It is noteworthy in this context that Beauvoir's philosophical exploration is enriched by her distinctive perspective on violence, examining its role in human relationships. By exploring selected novels, especially "She Came to Stay", the study examines how Beauvoir uses literary expression to deepen her investigation into the proposed themes. The subtitle of the dissertation refers to a phrase used by Beauvoir in "Pyrrhus and Cineas" to assert the paradox between perceiving oneself as a free being while simultaneously experiencing the facticity of one's human condition.
