She analyzes the different versions of gendered citizenship elaborated by Friedrich Hegel, George Sand, Honore de Balzac, Auguste Comte and Herculine Barbin revealing a shift from a single dialectical (or male-centered) definition of citizenship to a double dialectical (or bi-gendered) one in which each sex plays an important role in subject-citizenship and is defined as the negation of the other sex. Moscovici further argues that a double dialectical pattern of androgyny endows women with a (relational) cultural identity that secures their paradoxical roles as both representatives and outsiders to subject-citizenship in nineteenth-century French society and culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47614490017943,"sku":"9780847696956","price":4578.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780847696956.webp?v=1775094122","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/gender-and-citizenship-the-dialectics-of-subject-citizenship-in-nineteenth-century-french-literature-and-culture-9780847696956","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
