LUCE IRIGARAY AND LOVE |
|
| Authors: | Heidi Bostic |
| Abstract: | This article responds to recent criticisms of Luce Irigaray' I Love to You by inviting the reader to attend to the resources for theorizing being-two in love offered in this book as well as in Irigaray' larger corpus. Irigaray' focus on male/female relationships is a strategic choice that does not endorse compulsory heterosexuality. Her thought on the negative, on silence and on listening contributes to a theory of relational identity that can lead to the building of a new social order. |
