Speculum of Being Two

Politics and Theory After all these Years

Federica Giardini

University of Roma Tre.

Nearly 30 years after the first edition of Speculum, Irigaray's present work can be read from a different position. Accordingly, the main political and civil concerns of the author are examined in their relation to a theory of sexual difference. A new insight can emerge, as women realize that their own position is also made by Irigaray's work. This produces new configurations between politics and theory, embodied experiences and relations and their formalization, in a move that is both a rooting in and a departure from Irigaray's work.

Key Words: embodied experiences • politics • sexual difference
