Over dit product

Product Information

Rousseau's writings reflect paradoxes and apparent inconsistencies with his principled commitments to freedom and equality. In this engrossing work, Penny Weiss wrestles with issues of gender in the works of Rousseau. Weiss attempts to resolve apparent inconsistencies by placing them within the context of Rousseau's political philosophy, while avoiding the impulse to attribute his remarks on the sexes to the sexist times in which he wrote, or to his personal idiosyncracies. A significant contribution to feminist theory, this book addresses the debates concerning Rousseau's understandings of gender, justice, freedom, community, and equality. She also examines how Rousseau's political strategies give rise to a range of important contemporary questions regarding families, citizens, and communities. This new, more complete picture of Rousseau's work will challenge scholars and students of philosophy, politics, and women's studies to look at, and understand, Rousseau in a whole new way. Penny A. Weiss addresses the apparent male/female contradictions that run through the work of the eighteenth-century philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau. She argues that Rousseau's defense of sexual differentiation is based on the contribution he perceives it can make to the establishment of community, not on an appeal to some version of natural sex differences. Weiss convincingly demonstrates that Rousseau's political strategy is ultimately unworkable, undermining the very community it was meant to establish.

Reviews
( "There is no better guide to the recent debates about the social history of the Revolution. Young and Nobles make it clear what is at stake in how we characterize the Revolution's nature and impact. A must-read for all students of the Revolutionary era." )-(David Waldstreicher),(), "Clear, rich, and coherent, the book succeeds splendidly."--Choice "In a thoughtful, lucid and graceful book, Penny Weiss shows how Rousseau's attempt to combine a sexual division of labor with a communitarian politics--as good a try as there ever was--cannot succeed. Weiss offers a convincing feminist reading of Rousseau, one that genuinely gives the other side of the gender equality argument, Rousseau's side, its due."--Jane Bennett, Goucher College, "In a thoughtful, lucid and graceful book, Penny Weiss shows how Rousseau's attempt to combine a sexual division of labor with a communitarian politics-as good a try as there ever was-cannot succeed.

Scholars, students, and non-specialists will find this work to be an invaluable guide to understanding the revolutionary period of American history." )-(Rosemarie Zagarri),(George Mason University), "In a thoughtful, lucid and graceful book, Penny Weiss shows how Rousseau's attempt to combine a sexual division of labor with a communitarian politicsas good a try as there ever wascannot succeed. Weiss offers a convincing feminist reading of Rousseau, one that genuinely gives the other side of the gender equality argument, Rousseau's side, its due." - Jane Bennett, Goucher College, ( "Young and Nobles bring together all the richness that historians have found about the real, dramatic, transforming, liberating, and sometimes tragic American Revolutionary era. Everybody who is seriously interested in how the United States began should read this book." )-(Edward Countryman),(author of The American Revolution and Americans, A Collision of Histories ), ( "Young and Nobles' characterizations of their often quirky protagonists are so vivid and so witty that to me, Whose American Revolution Was It? felt less like reading a book than like watching a play." )-(Woody Holton),(author of Unruly Americans and the Origins of the Constitution ), ("Gregory Nobles' deft exploration of a new wave of scholarship on the American Revolutionary era extends Alfred Young's earlier historiographical classic. With a master's touch, they have provided the go-to book for all who treasure the American Revolution as the seedtime of American democracy while looking to its multi-faceted dimensions for answers to today's problems and challenges." )-(Gary Nash),(author of The Unknown American Revolution )
