Helene 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.
