Summary/Abstract: The material gathered in this study provides a rich and diverse context for understanding Irigaray’s philosophy of natural sexual difference, her accounts of nature and sexed humanity, and the Irigarayan interval of sexual difference. The analysis presented in this paper contributes to research on Irigaray’s analysis of phallocentrism, her eroticization of philosophical language, and her confidence in sexual duality.
