内容简介 在线阅读本书
A "wilful extremist" according to the
London Times, Hélène Cixous is hailed as one of the most formidable writers and thinkers of our time. From collaborating with acclaimed performance company Théâtre du Soleil, to producing a weighty body of both fiction and non-fiction, Cixous is celebrated for her brilliant contributions to contemporary culture. Acclaimed by luminaries such as Jacques Derrida, her writing has nonetheless been misunderstood and misread, to a surprising extent. With the inclusion of
Stigmata, one of her greatest works into the
Routledge Classics series, this is about to change.
Questions that have long concerned her - the self and the other, autobiographies of writing, sexual difference, literary theory, post-colonial theory, death and life - are explored here, woven into a stunning narrative. Displaying a remarkable virtuosity, the work of Cixous is heady stuff indeed: exciting, powerful, moving, and dangerous.
作者简介 Hélène Cixous (1937- ) Born in Algeria, Cixous spent her childhood in France. Known for her experimental writing that crosses the traditional limits of academic discourse into poetic language, she is equally well known for her work in education and as a novelist and a playwright.
编辑推荐 From Library Journal Cixous, author of more than 30 books of fiction, essays, and plays and professor of literature at the University of Paris 8, which she helped found in 1968, describes this work as an autobiographical narrative. One of the scant autobiographical facts she mentions is that her father, a Jewish physician, chose to raise his family in an Arab neighborhood in Algeria rather than a French one. As long as her father lived, the family was treated with respect, but when he died, she claims that the Arabs spurned the family because of their " `jewfrenchness,' a double original sin." Cixous's essays reveal her vast erudition, covering topics as diverse as sexual difference, postcolonial theory, literary theory, love, life, and death. In one essay, her analysis of the works of James Joyce and Clarice Lispector are especially insightful. This is fascinating reading, especially for comparative literature and other scholars.?Robert T. Ivey, Univ. of Memphis
