- This paper considers Hélène Cixous’ écriture feminine (‘writing feminine’) in contemporary feminist legal scholarship, and especially its relation to the turn to feminist posthumanism, AI and technology. To write one self through écriture feminine is a feminist act in contestation to the ‘phallocentric’ search for the law’s (phallo-)‘originary first term or logos’. The article discusses the importance of ‘writing one self’ as legal scholars in our own time, and how this is and can be done in computer code as well as in other forms of writing in legal scholarship. Legal scholarship has often considered Cixous’ work in the context of ‘the linguistic turn’ – a turn that has been out of vogue for some time now. Hence, Cixous’ écriture feminine is rarely explicitly referred to as part of contemporary feminist legal scholarship. In this article, however, I show that Cixous’ scholarship, and her écriture feminine, is central to contemporary feminist legal scholarship in its turn to feminist posthumanism, AI and technology: The feminist tradition of écriture feminine continues to interrupt the phallocentric predatory imperative embedded in the world, regardless of ‘turns’ and ‘vouges’.
