The Interval offers the first sustained analysis of the concept
grounding Irigaray's thought: the constitutive yet incalculable
interval of sexual difference. In an extension of Irigaray's
project, Hill takes up her formulation of the interval as a way of
rereading Aristotle's concept of topos and Bergson's concept of
duration.Hill diagnoses a sexed hierarchy at the heart of
Aristotle's and Bergson's presentations. Yet beyond that
phallocentrism, she points out how Aristotle's theory of topos as a
sensible relation between two bodies that differ in being and
Bergson's intuition of duration as an incalculable threshold of
becoming are indispensable to the feminist effort to think about
sexual difference.Reading Irigaray with Aristotle and Bergson, Hill
argues that the interval cannot be grasped as a space between two
identities; it must be characterized as the sensible threshold of
becoming, constitutive of the very identity of beings. The interval
is the place of the possibility of sexed subjectivity and
intersubjectivity; the interval is also a threshold of the becoming
of sexed forces.
