Philosophers have always wrestled with the enigma of woman. She has been the object of admiration and contempt, of longing and fear. She is the giver of life, yet the bringer of ruin. She is the lover, the muse, the mystery, the temptation, the companion, the distraction, the force of nature that bends even the greatest of men. No subject has fuelled more poetry, inspired more madness, or stirred more debate in the hearts of thinkers than the question of woman. This book does not concern itself with politics or rights. It does not ask whether women should rule, whether they should be liberated, or how they have fared in society. That is the work of historians and political theorists. Instead, this is a book about how philosophers-men and women of thought-have viewed the essence of the feminine mind, the nature of love, and the battle between reason and passion that women have historically symbolized.
