Abstract
Since the 1970s feminism has signified one of the most productive critical reconsiderations of modern political thought legacy. This article examines the questioning of modern notions of political freedom and political community that Linda Zerilli has undertaken in her reading of Hannah Arendt and Ludwig Wittgenstein. On this basis and on criticism of sexual dimorphism, the article shows the need to rethink the relationship between theory and praxis beyond its modern conception, a feature present in much of contemporary feminist theory.

En su escrito de 1937, Las tres guineas, Virginia Woolf subrayaba que la pretensión de las sufragistas no era sólo la petición de los derechos de la mujer sino que, «tenía un alcance más amplio y más profundo; era la petición de los derechos de todos –hombres y mujeres, a que, en nuestras personas, se respetaran los grandes principios de la Justicia, la Igualdad y la Libertad» (Woolf, 1999, 139)
Que reclamar otra gramática de la diferencia sexual, como ha hecho el feminismo, es intentar una nueva manera de ver, pero esto no quiere decir que con la nueva gramática queden mejor simbolizadas las mujer o la esencia de lo real, ya que nuestra exigencia se sitúa en el nivel de la acción y de la imaginación y no en el de la teoría o del conocimiento
