The first study dedicated to Montaigne’s philosophy on the theme of gender, this work shows how identity, sexuality, culture, and power are approached in a new way in theEssais. Montaigne reverses misogynistic mentalities with irony and proposes an original defence of women’s freedom.

Review - French Cet ouvrage presente la premiere etude consacree a la philosophie de Montaigne sur le theme du genre, sujet longtemps rendu invisible par la tradition critique en France. La question du genre acquiert, dans lesEssais, le statut d'un reel objet de pensee. Montaigne construit sur ce theme un discours philosophique novateur. Sa coherence convainc quand on la rattache au scepticisme si particulier desEssais. La pensee de Montaigne sur la difference des sexes apparait comme un renversement ironique des mentalites misogynes dominantes. Elle elabore une satire du patriarcat et constitue une defense de la liberte et de l'egalite de la femme. Identite, sexualite, culture, pouvoir sont des enjeux de combat. Cette pensee influencera Marie de Gournay, pionniere du feminisme moderne. Elle ouvre la reflexion contemporaine sur des perspectives inedites.
