Published in France in 1980, "Marine Lover" is the first in a
trilogy in which Luce Irigaray links the interrogation of the
feminine in post-Hegelian philosophy with a pre-Socratic
investigation of the elements. Irigaray undertakes to interrogate
Nietzche, the grandfather of poststructuralist philosophy, from the
point of view of water.
According to Irigaray, water is the element Nietzsche fears
most. She uses this element in her narrative because for her there
is a complex relationship between the feminine and the fluid.
Irigaray's method is to engage in an amorous dialogue with the male
philosopher. In this dialogue, she ruptures conventional discourse
and writes in a lyrical style that defies distinction between
theory, fiction, and philosophy.
