	Luce Irigaray
		Luce Irigaray was born in Belguim in the 1930s.
		Irigaray's second Doctorate thesis, "Speculum of the Other Woman," was closely followed by the cessation of her employment at the University of Vincennes.
		Early receptions of Irigaray in the English-speaking world often mistakenly labeled her an 'essentialist.' this view is now generally considered false, as a better understanding of the complex linguistic, philosophical and psychoanalytic precepts Irigaray writes from is gained.

	sociology - Luce Irigaray
		Luce Irigaray (born 1930) is a French feminist and psychoanalytic and cultural theorist.
		Luce Irigaray is inspired by the psychoanalytic theories of Jacques Lacan and the deconstructionism of Jacques Derrida.
		Irigaray was criticised by Alan Sokal in Intellectual Impostures for arguing that E=mc² is a "sexed equation" (because it privileges the speed of light) and arguing that fluid mechanics has been neglected by "masculine" science because it prefers to deal with "masculine" rigid objects rather than "feminine" fluids [1].

	Irigaray
		Irigaray also points out that in the Freudian model, female sexuality is always coded in terms of reproduction, that the notions of female sexuality are caught up in reproduction and that reproduction is also linked to female pleasure and desire.
		Irigaray wants to talk about female sexual desire without the maternal instinct, she wants to divorce female pleasure from a woman's reproductive capacities.
		Irigaray states that true heterosexuality is impossible within the Freudian system because a male's desire is to reunite with the mother's body and the female's desire is to obtain a penis.

	Luce Irigaray [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Irigaray's goal is to uncover the absence of a female subject position, the relegation of all things feminine to nature/matter, and, ultimately, the absence of true sexual difference in Western culture.
		Further, Irigaray believes that all women have historically been associated with the role of "mother" such that, whether or not a woman is a mother, her identity is always defined according to that role.
		Irigaray refuses to belong to any one group in the feminist movement because she believes that there is a tendency for groups to set themselves up against each other.

	Semiotexte : Luce Irigaray : Why Different
		For Luce Irigaray, one of the most original French feminist theorists, deconstructing the patriarchal tradition is not enough.
		She admits that it is not an easy task, but she believes that it is necessary to also define new values directly or indirectly suitable to feminine subjectivity and to feminine identity.
		Irigaray elaborates on issues brought up in her other../books/bookCovers, Speaking is Never Neutral, I Love to You, Thinking the Difference, and To Be Two and brings them to fruition.

	Irigaray Circle Members
		My interest in Irigaray's philosophy is primarily on her work on ethics, especially in the concept of "coexistence" and its impact on democracy.
		I'm interested in Irigaray's contributions to feminist theory, particularly her nuanced interpretation of the way women are "on the market." I think she extends and refines the work of other French feminists and posits new ways of considering the way that patriarchy affects the individual and the culture at large.
		My dissertation was on Irigaray's work, I use her work directly and indirectly when I publish, and I have taught her work in everything from Introduction to Philosophy to an advanced seminar for philosophy majors.

	Luce Irigaray
		In This Sex Which Is Not One, Luce Irigaray elaborates on some of the major themes of Speculum of the Other Woman, her landmark work on the status of women in Western philosophical discourse and in psychoanalytic theory.
		Among the topics she treats are the implications of the thought of Freud and Lacan for understanding womanhood and articulating a feminine discourse; classic views on the significance of the difference between male and female sex organs; and the experience of erotic pleasure in men and in women.
		In her book "The Sex Which is not One," Luce Irigaray argues that there is another similar system that pre-dates and is probably a requirement for capitalism, and yet remains independent of capitalism, that being the subjugation of women as a commodity to men.

		In this complex, lyrical, meditative engagement with the later work of the eminent German philosopher, Irigaray critiques Heidegger's emphasis on the element of earth as the ground of life and speech and his "oblivion" or forgetting of air.

	ArtandCulture Artist: Luce Irigaray (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Born in Belgium in the 1930s, Irigaray quickly gravitated to Paris, where Jacques Lacan was propagating his revisionist psychoanalytic theories.
		For such proposals, Irigaray was ejected from her post at the University of Vincennes -- ironically, this event illustrated the very point she was making.
		According to Irigaray, "man" does not mean the same thing as "male," "woman" is distinct from "female." The latter terms are inescapable qualities of being, while the former involve the cultural qualities we assume after birth.
