Por uma genealogia da literatura lésbica francesa
Este trabalho postula que uma genealogia da literatura lésbica francesa pode ser traçada a partir de um certo número de escritos de mulheres das primeiras décadas do século XX e, notadamente, do período entre as duas guerras, dentre essas autoras se encontram Renée Vivien, Natalie Barney, Lucie Delarue-Mardrus, Jeanne Galzy e Colette. Em seus textos poéticos e, de maneira menor, narrativos, o elemento líquido age como uma metáfora das relações ho…
A Reflexive Gaze on Art History
This article examines one of Jacques Derrida’s essays concerning aesthetics, ‘Pregnances’ (first published in 1993), which comments on the work of a woman artist, Colette Deblé, in relation to the question of the ‘feminine’ and to a feminist gaze in art history. Derrida argues that Deblé avoids oppositional or ‘reactive’ logic regarding Western pictorial tradition in favour of what can be called a reflexive gaze of this undoubtedly phallogocentri…

Tránsfugas de sexo, género y especie
Yo soy el monstruo que os habla, de Paul B. Preciado (2020), constituye una relación –en el sentido de “informe”, tal como reza su subtítulo: Informe para una academia de psicoanalistas– sobre su estatuto de sujeto trans. En el estilo enfático y con frecuencia poético que caracteriza la escritura de Preciado, este texto está construido en espejo del relato de Franz Kafka “Informe para una Academia” (1917). Lejos de ser una simple referencia culta…
Hélène Cixous’s Creaturely Poethics
Drawing on Jacques Derrida’s and Sarah Kofman’s conception of writing, Anat Pick’s notion of the ‘creaturely’ and Kári Driscoll’s ‘zoopoetics’, this article discusses the relationship between textuality and animality in Hélène Cixous’s work. Cixous’s writing has been described as inscribing the body in the text, which may be considered an ethical engagement; her embodied poetics can thus be called a creaturely poethics. The analysis focuses mostl…

Traduire, c’est‐à‐dire d’abord faire l’expérience de l’intraduisible et des ouvertures du sens qu’une telle expérience implique : telle pourrait être la devise de l’ambitieuse entreprise du Dictionnaire du genre en traduction (en ligne), portée par le Laboratoire d’études de genre et de sexualité LEGS sous la houlette de Marta Segarra et Ilana Eloit depuis 2019. Envisagés dans la complexité de leurs migrations transnationales et transculturelles,…
Cuerpos que (no) importan y nuevas alianzas
A partir de una lectura de las teorías de Judith Butler sobre el cuerpo (en su obra Cuerpos que importan), este artículo reflexiona sobre cómo algunos seres son relegados a los márgenes exteriores de la comunidad, reducidos a una masa anónima que, con frecuencia, se relaciona más con la animalidad que con la humanidad. A partir del ecofeminismo y de la noción de posthumanidad (especialmente tal como la declinan Cary Wolf y Donna Haraway), se exam…
Uncanny Animal Writing
International audience
Performing Centaurs and the Debasement of Masculinity
This article examines, in its first part, the symbolic aspects of the relation between horses and men, and the mythical figure of the centaur, most often assimilated to virility and male sexual drive, but also to women and their sexuality. In its second and central part, it focuses on Bartabas and Ko Murobushi's performance, The Centaur and the Animal (2012) while raising ethical issues relating to performing animals. The essay analyzes how this …
Vida Y Verdad
La literatura escrita por mujeres se ha considerado confrecuencia desde el prisma autobiográfico, como si las autoras fueran másproclives a la verdad autobiográfica, a contar sus vidas incluso en susobras de ficción. Por ello, la crítica relaciona generalmente a las escritorasfrancesas contemporáneas con el género de la “autoficción”. HélèneCixous, especialmente en sus últimas obras, realiza por su parte un usomuy particular de la escritura autob…
Entre voyeurisme et ironie
La population gitane espagnole est à la fois sur- et sous-représentée dans la télévision de ce pays. Ce groupe social n’y apparaît en général que lorsqu’il est associé à des délits violents en rapport avec la drogue ou contre la propriété, ou bien l’associant à la musique du flamenco. Cependant, deux émissions récentes, Palabra de gitano et Los Gipsy kings , se sont focalisées sur des familles de ce groupe, la première avec une prétention documen…
Differences in Common
Differences in Common engages in the ongoing debate on ‘community’ focusing on its philosophical and political aspects through a gendered perspective. It explores the subversive and enriching potential of the concept of community, as seen from the perspective of heterogeneity and distance, and not from homogeneity and fused adhesions. This theoretical reflection is, in most of the essays included here, based on the analysis of literary and filmic…
Cixous and Derrida, “Subjects of French culture”
This article attempts to read Hélène Cixous' "fiction," So Close, and Jacques Derrida's essay, Monolingualism of the Other, not as representative of Franco-Maghrebi literature, nor of "Judeo-Maghrebi" literature, but as two extremely rich reflections on issues that pervade these literary and social domains, such as nostalgia, exile, memory, family and personal origins, mother tongue, colonized language, mourning, and the "politics of memory." Key…
Cixous, Derrida and Psychoanalysis
If we consider the role of psychoanalysis in Hélène Cixous's and Jacques Derrida's writing, we must assume that both differ considerably. Derrida's work, from its beginning, includes several essays on psychoanalysis (although referring to Derrida this usual expression fails to be appropriate). Cixous, faithful to her conception of writing as philosophical fiction, prefers to present the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, as a character in m…
Helene Cixous's Other Animal
Hélène Cixous has extensively written about cats, her real cats, and on the cat's figure as the privileged other of the subject. This article focuses on another animal, the dog called "Fips," a significant character in Les Rêveries de la femme sauvage, and in an earlier and shorter text, "Stigmata, or Job the Dog." It also takes into account "Mon chien à trois pattes" ("My Three-legged Dog," in Le Jour où je n'étais pas là), a text entwined with …
Joyful Babel
Joyful Babel: Translating Hélène Cixous is a selection of critical essays on translation and the writing of Hélène Cixous, with contributions from translators of her texts into different languages and cultures. The present volume is unique in that it is the first collection of essays on the work of Cixous from the perspective of translation. It presents new explorations into translating as process, theory and practice, and new insights on Cixous’…
