Extractions: Focusing on the key novels and plays, Sellers explores a range of issues and themes central to Cixous' work; the correlation between the death of the author's own father and her 'coming-into-being' as a writer; the psychological process of separation and individuation and the creation of a female authorial self; discovery of the other and the dramatization of love; the delineation of an alternative form of relationship between self and other which would have significance in a wider sphere than that of the merely personal. This much-needed book will be welcomed by students in literature and literary theory, feminism and gender studies, English and French studies and philosophy. 'The exceptional clarity of Sellers' expositions are backed up by an unerring choice of the clearest and most approachable quotations from Cixous' work. Her ability to do this springs from her unrivalled knowledge of Cixous' work. She has done an excellent job of making a notoriously difficult writer accessible to undergraduates.' Dr Elizabeth Fallaize, St John's College, Oxford

Extractions: translated by Eric Prenowitz Routledge ($17.95) by David Clippinger ootprints Cixous' place in the literary theory canon is firmly established; her widely anthologized essay "The Laugh of the Medusa" is usually granted a cornerstone position in feminist post-structural theory. So it may seem somewhat surprising to stumble upon this remark early in Rootprints What is most true is poetic because it is not stopped-stoppable. All that is stopped, grasped, all that is subjugated, easily transmitted, easily picked up, all that comes under the word concept, which is to say all that is taken, caged, is less true. . . . There is a continuity in the living; whereas theory entails a discontinuity, a cut, which is altogether the opposite of life. I am not anathematizing all theory. It is indispensable, at times, to make progress, but alone it is false. Cixous' theoretical texts are indeed "circulated and appropriated," as she says"they were made for this, by the way"but the body of her fiction has been relatively neglected. While not disparaging her theoretical writings, the above comment touches upon the root of the matter: her novels aren't read because they reflect multiplicity and irreducibility, while the theoretical texts offer a more limited and limiting perspectivea perspective that fiction must strive against. Writing that resists categorization reflects the ever-unfolding, ever-evolving nature of living, and if nothing else Cixous' work argues for the absolute contingency of life and writing.

Extractions: HELENE CIXOUS Helene Cixous was born in Oran, Algeria in 1937, which was a colony of France, and was raised in a German-Jewish household. She received her aggregation in English in 1959 and her Docteur en lettres in 1968. Cixous has taught at many different universities throughout France including the University of Bordeaux (1962), the Sorbonne (1965-67), and Nanterre (1967). Helene Cixous is much more prolific than her body of work that has been translated into English would indicate. Major works that have been translated into English (Year indicates year it was published in English): The Book of Promethea Angst The Newly Born Woman Inside Coming to Writing Three Steps on the Ladder of Writing: The Wellek Library Lectures (1994), and Stigmata: Escaping Texts (1998), a collection of Cixous' most recent essays for the first time in any language. Cixous is a novelist, essayist, playwright, literary critic and professor. "The Laugh of the Medusa" Cixous begins this essay with the claim that "Woman must write her self: must write about women and bring women to writing, from which they have been driven away as violently as from their bodies" (309). Cixous' essay links the female body and its possibilities of pleasure and power with the possibilities that are also available through female writing. Both have been denied women (the body and writing) by the dominant phallocentric culture. Cixous says that "[W]riting has been run by a libidinal and cultural-hence political, typically masculine-economy; that this is a locus where the repression of women has been perpetuated, over and over" (311). Woman must write herself into history, draw her story into history (312). It is ultimately up to her to claim her place and the way to do this best is in Cixous' view through female writing

Making Maternal Sound Waves Hélène cixous's Gynophonocentric Rhetoric cixous'scritical practice is not, however, limited to the presymbolic mother.
http://femrhet.cla.umn.edu/proposals/keskinen_mikko.htm

Extractions: Department of Literature, University of Tyvaskyla This paper examines the rhetoric of sound, voice, and speech in Cixous's feminist writings. Using Jacques Derrida's deconstructive critique of phonocentrism as a starting point, the paper proposes a neologism, gynophonocentrism, to account for Cixous's privileging of voice, commonly found in other feminist discourses as well. Voice relates, in Cixous's rhetoric, to origin, authenticity, and essentialistic womanhood. For Cixous, the idea of voice is mute, and her writing seeks to voice it, make it speak. On the other hand, woman signifies materially, carnally: "she conveys meaning with her body" and "she inscribes what she is saying" ("Sorties"). In Toril Moi's reading, Cixous means that woman is "wholly and physically present in her voice and writing is no more than the extension of this self-identical prolongation of the speech act." My paper conceives the problematic differently; there is a dual tendency at work in woman's discourse: her writing gets attributes of speech, and her speech resembles the material permanence of inscription.
