We would like to invite you to the last and rather special lecture of the Research Forum for Culture & Communication of Birkbeck's School of Languages, Linguistics & Culture.
Professor Hélène Cixous - "Letter-Beings and Time"
"Algeria. To go there as in a dream, that would be the ideal I said to myself. To go there as a dream, I dreamt. To go there in such a magic, such an intense powerful, light, fleeing, total fashion that I would have been there even while being as if I was not there myself but another, with the force but the impunity, and even the immunity of a letter. If I could have sent myself there, sent it to myself. Letter-being." (excerpt, translated by P. Kamuf)
