Masculin/Féminin I: La pensée de la différence is a book by Françoise Héritier that explores the reflection on the difference between the masculine and the feminine. Published on January 10, 2008, this paperback book offers a deep insight into this topic.
Françoise Héritier was a French anthropologist, ethnologist, and feminist. She was the successor to Claude Lévi-Strauss to hold the chair of anthropology at the Collège de France, and held the inaugural chair of Comparative Study of African Societies from 1983. Her work dealt mainly with the theory of alliances and on the prohibition of incest, both theories based on the notion of exchange of women. In addition to Lévi-Strauss, she was also influenced by Alfred Radcliffe-Brown.
