    Challenging Narratives: Understanding Écriture Féminine and its Modern Implications
    (White Falcon Publishing, 2025) Sumedha Dasgupta
    This chapter takes a look at Helene Cixous' concept of écriture feminine and tries to understand the social context in which it was written. It breaks down the essay, "The Laugh of the Medusa" to closely understand the meaning of écriture feminine, and what it implies for readers. There is also an attempt to understand Cixous' work in relation to the prevalent philosophical frameworks that inspired her work- deconstruction, poststructuralism and psychoanalysis.
