More about the book
The book explores the evolution of subjectivity from the masculinist perspectives of Rousseau, Diderot, and Kant in the eighteenth century to contemporary critiques by feminist and postmodern thinkers like Irigaray, Butler, and Foucault. It examines how these shifts challenge the notion of the universal subject as a rational, impartial individual, revealing the complexities and continuities in the understanding of identity and political judgment. This critical analysis highlights the interplay between historical and modern theories of selfhood and gender.
