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.
