'I have often declared my admiration for Helene Cixous, for the
person and for the work: immense, powerful, so multiple but unique
in this century.' - Jacques Derrida 'Insister of Jacques Derrida,
so expertly translated by Derrida's principal and most faithful
translator, Peggy Kamuf, is an indispensable, daring, heartfelt and
moving book...It presents a flawless, committed reading that is in
the spirit of Derrida in its serious playfulness, its poetic
sinuousness, its elegant reasoning and rhetoric while also being
wholly in Cixous' own singular voice. This is not merely a study of
Derrida, it is a haunting dialogue with his memory and with his
phantom.' - Julian Wolfreys, Professor of Modern Literature and
Culture, Loughborough University Helene Cixous is arguably the most
insightful and unbridled reader of Jacques Derrida today. In
Insister she brings a unique mixture of theoretical speculation,
breath-taking textual explication and scholarly erudition to an
extremely close reading of Derrida's work, always attentive to the
details of his thinking. At the same time, Insister is an
extraordinarily poetic meditation, a work of literature and of
mourning for Jacques Derrida the person, who was a close friend and
accomplice of Cixous's from the beginning of their careers.
Insister of Jacques Derrida joins Dream I Tell You by Helene Cixous
and Geneses, Genealogies, Genres and Genius by Jacques Derrida,
also published in The Frontiers of Theory series.
