Description
This study explores the concept of maleness in Western philosophy, examining how reason has traditionally been associated with masculinity. Genevieve Lloyd's work challenges this assumption and considers its implications for our understanding of philosophical thought.
First published in 1993, this new edition includes a revised introduction and bibliography, providing a fresh perspective on the book's significance within the field of philosophy and gender studies since its initial publication.
The Man of Reason is a thought-provoking exploration of a fundamental concept in Western philosophy, offering insights into the nature of reason and its relationship to human identity.
