Hne Cixous is among the most influential and original literary critics and feminist thinkers of our time. This volume reproduces for the first time, in any language a collection of pages from her original writing notebooks, offering a unique insight into her radical thought and work. The material gathered here ranges across the full spectrum of Cixous writing, including the concept of criture minine, and the starting points and sources of inspiration for her poetry and prose. The editors introduction succinctly outlines the central tenets of Cixous theory of writing. Each extract is accompanied by editorial commentary and a translation, both by Susan Sellers. The book concludes with an interview with Cixous herself, in which she discusses the writing process, her own criticism, fiction and poetry and the value and importance of these notebooks. Students and teachers of literature, psychoanalysis, philosophy and feminist theory will find this an illuminating and inspiring collection of writings. Edited by Susan Sellers, Professor of English and Related Literature at the Univeristy of St Andrews.
