Hèléne Cixous – author, playwright and French feminist theorist – is a key figure in twentieth-century literary theory. Stigmata brings together her most recent essays for the first time.
Acclaimed for her intricate and challenging writing style, Cixous presents a collection of texts that get away – escaping the reader, the writers, the book. Cixous”s writing pursues authors such as Stendhal, Joyce, Derrida, and Rembrandt, da Vinci, Picasso – works that share an elusive movement in spite of striking differences. Along the way these essays explore a broad range of poetico-philosophical questions that have become characteristic of Cixous” work:
* love”s labours lost and found
* feminine hours
* autobiographies of writing
* the prehistory of the work of art
Stigmata goes beyond theory, becoming an extraordinary writer”s testimony to our lives and times.
