description: The author of this book takes to the battlefield of current debates about humanities education with a clear strategic goal: to reread five texts canonical to modern European intellectual history from a perspective that is profoundly informed by awareness of gender issues - Descartes' Meditations, Marx's Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844, Flaubert's Madame Bovary, Freud's Beyond the Pleasure Principle, and Nietzsche's The Gay Science.
