Paper for Modern Europe class- Simone De Beauvoir “The Second Sex”

I need an explanation for this History question to help me study.

Read the following very carefully

4-5 pages double spaced- good 4 pages is preferred

-NO outside citation– the only citations allowed are from Simone De Beauvoir’s book “The Second Sex”. I will attach some pics of a chapter of the book that you will be able to use for citation regarding the Napoleonic Code-use at least 5 evidences from the book in length to support your claims.– You NEED to be able to have access to the full book,if you can’t then do not accept this assignment.

PROMPT:

1. 1. Drawing from The Second Sex (1949), identify 3-4 episodes or developments that we have previously learned about in this course, discussing them now as viewed through the lens of Simone de Beauvoir’s text. (This question asks you to draw primarily from The Second Sex.)

I already identifies them as you won’t have access to my lectures and they are the following:

EPISODES we learned: age of Napoleon (Napoleonic Code), The French Revolution

Developments: First wave of feminism, divorce policy

—- On the lens of Simone De Beauvoir, talk about the age of Napoleon, the French Revolutio– Make sure to tie the developments and the evidences

AN idea to make a good essay: (on top of the intro with thesis and conclusion)

-One paragraph on the French Revolution viewed through the lenses of De Beauvoir (with her feminist lenses)

– One Paragraph on the Napoleonic Code that includes what it was and why was it significant. And then another paragraph why was its significant for woman history THROUGH the lenses of De Beauvoir.

—-How did those instances become clearer as a result that she is coming at this with a feminist lenses.—–

–No personal opinion, this is about making claims and illustrating through evidences to persuade someone that this is significant– all evidences only from the textbook.

** I will also attach 3 pages of our textbook, it talks a little about feminism and “right for divorce”, so you can cite from it and make connections if you want (being the textbook from a normal perspective and then de Beauvoir a feminist perspective)
