Mystérique
Luce Irigaray is a French feminist and psychoanalytic and cultural theorist. She is best known for her works Speculum of the Other Woman and This Sex Which Is Not One.
In Speculum of the Other Woman, Irigaray considers "mystic language and discourse" which she terms La Mystérique — an expression noted as not adequately translatable into a single English word, its meaning encapsulating mysticism, hysteria, mystery and "the femaleness." Irigaray argues that such discourse is a "place" like no other in Western discourse, in which woman "speaks and acts so publicly."
