Talk:Hélène Cixous

message: I see that Cixous has been added to the LGBT philosophers category. I'm aware that there is some treatment of lesbianism in Cixous's work, but on what basis is this characterisation made? Buffyg 11:50, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Much of the material in the section of Influences does not seem to present how these thinkers have impacted the work of Hélène Cixous. The section on Freud is sounds likes something on a fashcard for an intro to pysch class than something that should be in this article. --chemica 01:59, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

message: The article states: "Through deconstruction, Derrida employed the term logocentrism (which was not his coinage). This is the concept that explains how language relies on a hierarchical system that values the written word over the spoken word in Western culture. The idea of binary opposition is essential to Cixous' position on language."
I'm fairly sure that this account of logocentrism is reversed: speech is valued over the written word, and not vice versa! Derrida's angle in Of Grammatology was that speech was taken to be more 'present' and closer to the Truth of meaning.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.62.84.51 (talk) 04:46, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I found this gem in a scholarly journal of Derrida and Cixous exchanging thoughts and ideas; I thought I'd add an excerpt where Derrida speaks about what he and Cixous have in common, and their rootedness in the French language.Matipop (talk) 18:09, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

message: I'm working, slowly but surely, on adding references to this page in an effort to improve representation of women in the arts and humanities on Wikipedia. I'm new to Wikipedia so would appreciate any and all constructive criticism or assistance! I read some Cixous when I did my masters, and I know there's more information out there on her. The trouble will be finding it in English. Rachaelreally (talk) 18:08, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
