"I dreamt of one day arriving in Algeria." Born in Oran, Algeria, Helene Cixous spent her childhood in France's former colony. "Reveries of the Wild Woman" is her visceral memoir of a preadolescence that shaped her with intense feelings of alienation, yet also contributed, in a paradoxically essential way, to her development as a writer and philosopher. Born to a French father and an Austro-German mother, both Jews, Cixous experienced a childhood fraught with racial and gender crisis. In her moving story she recounts how...

In "The Third Body, " the poet, novelist, feminist critic, and theorist Helene Cixous interweaves a loose narrative line with anecdotes, autobiography, lyricism, myth, dream, fantasy, philosophical insights, and intertextual citations of and conversations with other authors and thinkers.

This relationship assumes protean forms within a complex web of writing, creating a "third body" out of the entwined bodies of the narrator and her lover.

Stigmata: Escaping Texts
ISBN: 9781138171022 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A 'wilful extremist' according to the London Times, Hélène Cixous is hailed as one of the most formidable writers and thinkers of our time. 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...

Three Steps on the Ladder of Writing
ISBN: 9780231076593 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. Three Steps on the Ladder of Writing is a poetic, insightful, and ultimately moving exploration of 'the strange science of writing.' In a magnetic, irresistible narrative, Cixous reflects on the writing process and explores three distinct areas essential for 'great' writing: The School of the Dead--the notion that something or someone must die in order for good writing to be born; The School of Dreams--the crucial role dreams play in literary inspiration and output; and The School of Roots--the importance of depth in the 'nether realms' in all aspects of writing....

Zero's Neighbour: Sam Beckett
ISBN: 9780745644165 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Zero's Neighbour is Helene Cixous's tribute to the minimalist genius of the artist in exile who courted nothingness in his writing like nobody else: Samuel Beckett. In this unabashedly personal odyssey through a sizeable range of his novels, plays and poems, Cixous celebrates Beckett's linguistic flair and the poignant, powerful thrust of his stylistic terseness, and passionately declares her love for his unrivalled expression of the meaningless 'precious little' of life, its unfathomable banality ending in chaos and death. Poised between a critical essay and a textual performance...

Insister of Jacques Derrida
ISBN: 9780748627929 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Exciting, passionate writing. A refusal to mourn her very close friend Derrida's death, it begins with a telling of a dream in which Derrida and Cixous feature as footballing mice." Tom Boncza-Tomaszewski, The Independent.
In 2003 Derrida had promised to attend a colloquium on 'Reading Cixous and Derrida Reading Each Other/Themselves'. His untimely death in 2004 meant that it was, as Cixous writes, 'Impossible to keep one's word on this subject.' Insister of Jacques Derrida is Cixous' poignant and compelling response to his unfulfilled promise and a moving tribute to the colleague,... "Exciting, passionate writing.

Death Shall Be Dethroned: Los, a Chapter, the Journal
ISBN: 9781509500642 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Death Shall Be Dethroned is the -shadow book- of Los, a Chapter, HElEne Cixous tells us. It came along after Los, but it was always there -hidden- in her notebooks, in the Beethoven notebook, say, the one Jacques Derrida gave her. But when it tapped at the window, she ignored it until the day she had to let it in. This is just of one the enigmas Death explores as it probes an old relationship between the narrator and -Carlos.- Another is her discovery on the Internet that Carlos's archives were at Princeton, and that the archive containing their correspondence was closed to the public:...

Abstracts and Brief Chronicles of the Time: I. Los, a Chapter
ISBN: 9781509500550 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. H?l?ne Cixous has dreamed for years of -The Book-I-Don't-Write, - but each time she approaches it, it withdraws. The-Book-I-Don't-Write is always just out of reach. When Jacques Derrida told her the Book would get written one day, but differently, Cixous tells us she would see it -shining behind a veil, its indecipherable back, upright on heaven's bookshelf, its elegant silhouette, utterly foreign, utterly familiar, of future revenant. I've always thought it would come, naturally. When? After all my deaths? Just before, or just after, the last of my deaths.-
