Reviews
Persuasive and entertaining. As an account of how Colette's writing works through vivid and sexualized metaphor, it's quite superb.... Kristeva and Colette are a brilliant coupling., Kristeva's doubting, troubled reading of Colette as daughter, as lover, as (autobiographical) writer is illuminating. Yet the encounter of Kristeva and Colette also serves to shift and open up areas in Kristeva's writing. On some levels the study is frank and personal...For Julia Kristeva, female genius depends on taking risks with language and with one's own identity. These are risks she herself is willing to take - emphatically so, as she revivifies our readings of Colette., "This scholarly biography, published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Colette's death, is not a scandal sheet but a psychoanalysis of Colette in which Kristeva uses psycholinguistics to explore the author's work and life.... Recommended for academic libraries." -- Library Journal, This work is the third in Kristeva's trilogy on female geniuses, after Hannah Arendt and Melanie Klein. Rather than the many scandals of her subject's life (1873-1954), she concentrates on Colette's writing, which she sees as groundbreaking in its attention to pleasure, especially women's pleasure, and in its language., This scholarly biography, published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Colette's death, is not a scandal sheet but a psychoanalysis of Colette in which Kristeva uses psycholinguistics to explore the author's work and life.... Recommended for academic libraries., "A major study on a figure who remains one of France's most underrated writers." -- Julien Bisson, France Today, "Persuasive and entertaining. As an account of how Colette's writing works through vivid and sexualized metaphor, it's quite superb.... Kristeva and Colette are a brilliant coupling." -- The Times (London)

Synopsis
Published on the fiftieth anniversary of her death, this intellectual biography of Colette--the final volume of Julia Kristeva's trilogy "Female Genius"--will be considered a major breakthrough in understanding one of the great creative minds of the twentieth century. Colette (1873-1954) was a prolific novelist who celebrated sexual pleasure and invented a language for it at a time when women writers were inhibited about dealing with the topic. Female sexuality in a male-dominated world and the joys and pains of love served as her main themes, and her novels-- Cheri, La Chatte, and Gigi, among them--blurred the boundaries between fact and fiction long before autobiographical novels became commonplace. She married three times, had male and female lovers, and for a time supported herself as a mime, dancing semi-nude in music halls throughout France. When she died, she received the first state funeral the French Republic had ever given a woman. Colette's writing was inspired by entertainers, courtesans, an aristocratic Parisian lesbian subculture, and fin de siècle gay aesthetes. She admired those who lived on the sexual edge and was accused of moral corruption in intellectual matters--she published in pro-Vichy, anti-Semitic journals during the Occupation, even as she fought to keep her Jewish third husband from deportation. Kristeva deftly examines Colette's controversial life and work and considers two of her most important influences, Honoré de Balzac and Marcel Proust. In a multifaceted approach, Kristeva considers Colette's use of metaphor, the characters in her novels, and the development of her writing within the context of her life. Paying particular attention to the language the French writer used to "say the unsayable and name the unnameable," Kristeva offers an elegant and sophisticated critique of Colette's psychological conflicts, particularly her sexual relationships and how these conflicts are both recorded in and resolved through the act of writing. Appealing to Freudian and Lacanian concepts such as the Oedipus complex, perversion, the symbolic, and melancholy, Kristeva opens Colette's oeuvre to psychoanalytic interpretation. The impression that remains is of a woman intent on experiencing the world's pleasures--its jouissance --in a melding with the world's flesh., Published on the fiftieth anniversary of her death, this intellectual biography of Colette--the final volume of Julia Kristeva's trilogy "Female Genius"--will be considered a major breakthrough in understanding one of the great creative minds of the twentieth century.

The result is an elegant and sophisticated critique filled with psychoanalytic insight.

I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!Mistress of Shenstone by Florence L. Barclay HC 1910 (Nr. 335940140985)
- a***p (8)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letztes JahrBestätigter KaufI received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque HC 1930 (Nr. 396258036329)
