Ecriture des origines, origines de l'ecriture. Helene Cixous

Ecrivaine inclassable, Helene Cixous offre une ecriture dont les grands themes - le pere mort, le pays perdu et la mere etrangere -, aux fortes resonances autobiographiques, s'affirment continuellement tout en multipliant les echos poetiques et philosophiques. La question de l'origine, a la fois singuliere et plurielle, donne lieu a une ecriture-pensee d'une subjectivite qui montre ses enracinements, revisite les lieux et les liens, mais (se) defait aussi des mythes de l'origine.

Ce volume se propose d'etudier les marqueurs de la feminite, de l’ algeriance
et de la judeite comme les principaux lieux d'interrogation de l'origine, auxquels s'ajoutent la filiation allemande mise en lumiere dans les textes les plus recents, Gare d'Osnabruck a Jerusalem et Une autobiographie allemande. Le volume ouvre par un inedit d'Helene Cixous,
Un legs empoisonne .

Helene Cixous offers us an unclassifiable oeuvre, the main themes of which - the dead father, the lost country and the foreign mother -, all autobiographically inspired, assert themselves as such while offering the reader continuously new poetical and philosophical insights.

The question of origin, either singular or multiple, gives rise to an ecriture-pensee of a subjectivity which shows its roots, revisits places and relationships, but also breaks down myths of origin.

This collection of essays proposes to study the markers of femininity, algeriance , Jewishness and, as expressed in Cixous’ latest works of fiction, the German filiation, as the main places of questioning origin. Un legs empoisonne , an unpublished text by Helene Cixous, opens the collection.
