Although my approach owes much to "hermeneutic phenomenology," it is meant to be another attempt at developing a different kind of philosophical writing, and the question of style is crucial to current philosophy. This text seeks to suggest new ways of relating, thinking, feeling, sensing and communicating which, I believe, are more aligned to the feminine and the natural than has been the case traditionally in our masculine-dominated West. This shall be especially apparent in this first chapter's study of Peploforos and Euthydikos. It hopes to contribute to the program that many feminists have encouraged, but as yet is still too infrequently practised, of searching for non-androcentric ways of thinking and writing. Similarly, it is allied to a branch of "deep ecology", that which knows that we must change ourselves as human beings in order to integrate ourselves positively with nature.
