Hemlock: Old Women in Bloom
ISBN: 9780745648675 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. A compelling work of autobiographical fiction, Helene Cixous's Hemlock weaves tragedy and comedy, narrative and meditation in its exploration of various human attachments: between an elderly but
still truculent mother and her writer-daughter, between the mother and her sister, and between the writer and her vanished but nonetheless intensely present friend, Jacques Derrida, whose death is movingly evoked. "I have in mind two lovely faces, old women in bloom," writes the author with a backwards nod to Proust's 'jeunes filles.' "Here," she says in her preface, "the criss-crossing paths of...

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:...

Sihanouk is one of Cixous's most ambitious projects: the dramatic portrayal of the conflicts between old and new, East and West, North and South, religion and politics. At its center...

Three Steps on the Ladder of Writing
ISBN: 9780231076593 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 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....

What especially does it mean for Jacques Derrida, founder of deconstruction, scoffer at boundaries and fixed identities, explorer of the indeterminate and undecidable?

ISBN: 9780810123649 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The feminist writer explores the extreme borders of motherhood and humanity
In this memoir-novel, a narrator who resembles Helene Cixous obsessively recounts an incident-the premature death of her first born child, a Down's Syndrome baby left in the care of the clinic in Algeria where her midwife mother works. She uses this event to probe her family history and her relationship with her mother, a refugee from Nazi Germany; her dead father, after whom the baby is named; and her medical-student brother, who takes on some of the duties of a father figure. Cixous's elusive writing bears... The feminist writer explores the extreme borders of motherhood and humanity

ISBN: 9780804737951 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Something of a historical event, this book combines loosely "autobiographical" texts by two of the most influential French intellectuals of our time. "Savoir," by Helene Cixous, is a brief but densely layered account of her experience of recovered sight after a lifetime of severe myopia, an experience that ends with the unexpected turn of grieving for what is lost. Her literary inventiveness mines the coincidence in French between the two verbs savoir (to know) and voir (to see). Jacques Derrida's "A Silkworm of One's Own" complexly muses on a host of autobiographical,...

The Portable Cixous
ISBN: 9780231145305 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Helene Cixous is more than an influential theorist. She is also a groundbreaking author and playwright. Combining an idiosyncratic mix of autobiographical and fictional narrative with a host of philosophical and poetic observations, Cixous's writing matches the kaleidoscopic nature of her thought, offering new ways of conceptualizing sex, relationships, identity, and the self, among other topics. Yet, as Jacques Derrida once observed, a "profound misunderstanding" hangs over the accomplishments of Cixous, with many believing the intellectual excelled only at theoretical exploration....
