Abstracts

EN

Drawing from the analyses of Simone de Beauvoir's works by current American and Slovak authors the article tries to show the affinity between the philosophical content of Simone de Beauvoir's writings and feminist epistemologies. After reviewing the contiguity and topics shared by S. de Beauvoir's and feminist epistemologies, the authoress unrolls the challenge of the postcolonial critiques emphasizing the necessity of handling the problem of cross-cultural dialogue. In the context of a wider question of how to act in the communication with the 'Other' it is undoubtedly important to analyze the conception of the subject of cognition as well as the methodologies of the feminist research. In conclusion the article tries to explore, how S. de Beauvoir's philosophical and ethical engagements with the 'Other' are used in contemporary analyses, enriching the epistemological researches as such.
