Jane Eyre

Charlotte Brontë

The "divine feminine" is cringe. It's yet another patriarchal idea that harms women. From Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre 👇 https://t.co/MRmUCwzjA3

The Second Sex

Simone de Beauvoir
RahulRahul

I'm beginning to prefer Simone de Beauvoir's existentialism over Jean-Paul Sartre's. When she famously wrote, "On ne naît pas femme, on le devient" (One is not born, but rather becomes, woman) in The Second Sex, she understood the deep antagonism in human existence. https://t.co/pHMhpmmVAQ

The Sublime Object of Ideology

Slavoj Zizek
RahulRahul

While I've always known that Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice is a superlative novel, I didn't realise how philosophically profound it was until I read Slavoj Žižek's The Sublime Object of Ideology. https://t.co/T5CxFR2TgI
