Cixous to go!
With the recent publication of The Portable Cixous, we are re-posting an interview with Cixous in which she discusses how the concept of intellectual has been masculinized, the idea of universalism, and more (see below).
For those interested in a distillation of her work and a collection of her most important writings, The Portable Cixous includes essays on the feminine, Algeria and Germany, love and the other, the animal, Derrida, and the theater. (Click here for the table of contents and here for more works by Cixous.)
