Codified in a more complex and organized way within the Rousseauian philosophy, this new conception spread in various cultural debates, gaining a real hegemony: women were meant to be excluded from any &#8220;public&#8221; space, devoid of cultural aspirations, and only devoted to satisfying the needs of the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book adopts a multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and synthetic approach and at the same time highlights the &#8220;roots&#8221; of some fundamental ways of considering women that are still active in present-day society. It also addresses researchers in the history of philosophy, sociology, literature, and gender studies, and readers with an interest in women\u2019s issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.
