From one to the other

Not all philosophies have dealt with what we today call sexual question, but some who did it were able to find some embarrassed. This book examines some of these embarrassments. Gender study? Not really. First, it is a question of method, admitting that the truth does not necessarily belong to the last to speak, to render to a tradition of thought its complexity and to update texts in doing so which for two centuries have been mentioned more often than precisely read or cited. It is then a question of examining the denial which lurks throughout this affair. This denial plays on the feminine and the masculine and, through this, on the difference. It benefits what must be called the "indifference" of power, to the “logic” of the transmission of fortunes and, in the final analysis, to economic despotism and its supposed modern-day “solution”: the contractual relationship. To which we oppose a paradoxical figure of fraternity, that of Antigone, and, in conclusion, a certain idea of ​​diversity.
