The 25th International Conference of the Simone de Beauvoir Society will take place October 11-13, 2018 at L’Université Paris-Diderot, 5 rue Thomas Mann, 75013 Paris.
The Society’s conference is part of the forum Penser avec Simone de Beauvoir Aujourd’hui, organized by the University of Paris-Diderot, the Simone de Beauvoir Foundation, the Simone de Beauvoir Prize for the Liberty of Women, and the International Simone de Beauvoir Society.
For details about the conference program and registration, as well as lodging and transportation please visit the Forum's website. Registration for the conference is free, but required.
2018 is a significant year as it marks the 110th anniversary of Simone Beauvoir’s birth, the 10thyear anniversary for the Prix Simone de Beauvoir, and the publication of the Bibliothèque de la Pléiade edition of Beauvoir’s autobiographical works. It has also been ten years since the International Simone de Beauvoir Society’s conference was held in Paris, as well as marking the first time the Simone de Beauvoir Foundation, the Simone de Beauvoir Prize for the Liberty of Women and the International Simone de Beauvoir Society undertake a conference of this kind. We are very excited about this opportunity to re-visit Beauvoir’s work and legacy, together in the light of feminism today, and look forward to sharing such a rich event with our diverse, international audiences.
During the three days of the forum there will be parallel sessions where members of the International Simone de Beauvoir Society present their papers, as well as roundtable discussions, testimonies, plenaries and interviews. The participants are encouraged to attend all sessions.
The Society’s annual meeting will be held on Thursday October 11that 9:00-11.00 in Salle 88c des Grands Moulins, and all participants with active membership are encouraged to attend. The Boards of Directors’s meeting is scheduled on Thursday October 11that 11:00-12:00 in Salle 88c des Grands Moulins.
