Helene Cixous is among the most influential and original literary
critics and feminist thinkers of our time. This volume reproduces -
for the first time, in any language - a collection of pages from
her original writing notebooks, offering a unique insight into her
radical thought and work. The material gathered here ranges across
the full spectrum of Cixous' writing, including the concept of
ecriture feminine, and the starting points and sources of
inspiration for her poetry and prose. The editor's introduction
succinctly outlines the central tenets of Cixous' theory of
writing. Each extract is accompanied by editorial commentary and a
translation, both by Susan Sellers. The book concludes with an
interview with Cixous herself, in which she discusses the writing
process, her own criticism, fiction and poetry and the value and
importance of these notebooks. Students and teachers of literature,
psychoanalysis, philosophy and feminist theory will find this an
illuminating and inspiring collection of writings.
