# Simone de Beauvoir

> She didn't call herself a philosopher, but The Second Sex became the text that named women's oppression and laid the ground for contemporary feminism. Her memoirs and novels carried existentialist ideas into lived experience, and the controversy over her teaching career never quite dimmed the reach of her work.

## Bio

Born Simone Lucie Ernestine Marie Bertrand de Beauvoir in January 1908, she became a French existentialist philosopher, writer, and social theorist who shaped feminist thought without claiming the philosopher's title. The Second Sex arrived in 1949 as a detailed analysis of women's oppression and a foundational tract. She wrote novels - She Came to Stay in 1943, The Mandarins in 1954, the latter winning her the Prix Goncourt - and her memoirs, especially the first volume Mémoires d'une jeune fille rangée in 1958, became her most enduring literary contribution. She received the Jerusalem Prize in 1975 and the Austrian State Prize for European Literature in 1978, and was nominated for the Nobel in Literature three times. She briefly lost her teaching position after accusations of sexually abusing students. She died in April 1986.
