Dear Tony, I am teaching a course in the Fall called "Feminism in France" and it will be cross-listed in Philosophy and French. Students who take it for French credit will be reading the texts in French. Here's a list of what we're doing: 1. de Beauvoir, Simone. _Le Deuxieme Sexe_ (selections from) 2. Irigaray, Luce. _Le Temps de la Difference_ (this is relatively easy to read in French) 3. Cixous, Helene and Clement, Catherine. _La Jeune Nee_ (this is difficult reading in French) 4. Irigaray, Luce. _Je, Tu, Nous_ (this is relatively easy to read in French) I think that if you start with these short essay texts by Irigaray in French, you'll be able to work your way up to de Beauvoir and Cixous. Gook luck!
