Summary

The work of Helene Cixous comprises some of the most radical aesthetic non-conformism in contemporary literature and literary theory. Cixous' great themes of existence, love, birth, death and dreaming nourish an unclassifiable work at the crossroads of diverse disciplines which concern everyone. InHelene Cixous, Rootprints, she explores the subterranean crossings which uncover the most intimate roots: those of childhood and language. Published here in English for the first time, this work traces Cixous' development as a writer and intellectual, and is an ideal introduction to her theory and her fiction. Unprecedented in its form and content,Helene Cixious, Rootprintsbreaks new ground in the theory and practice of autobiography. Cixous' creative reflections on the past simultaneously provide occasion for brilliant forays into the future. Helene Cixous, Rootprintsincludes an extended interview between Cixous and Calle-Grubar,exploring Cixous' creative and intellectual processes; and a revealing collection of photographs taken from Cixous' family album, illuminating the connections between memory and diaspora. Also included is a stunning preface by Jacques Derrida.
