This chapter analyzes Simone de Beauvoir’s way of combining different
theoretical frameworks, in particular, those of phenomenology and psychoanalysis. To elucidate the nature of Beauvoirian interdisciplinarity, I will examine Beauvoir’s discussion of penis envy and her application of
Helene Deutsch’s views. I will argue that the combination of psychoanalysis
and phenomenology in The Second Sex brings about an inner tension, of
which those interested in applying Beauvoir’s interdisciplinary approach
should be aware.
