Between Her and Her Place and Relations between Women in Irigaray and Wright REBECCA HILL Only heaven knows, there were millions of people throughout the world who either ofered pigs as sacrifces to their Gods, or fowers, or the frst grain of the new season’s crop. Tere were even others who ofered up their own people to the Gods. Now the day had come when modern man had become the face of the God, and he simply sacrifced the whole Earth. —Wright 2013, 12 I started to learn that protecting and valuing the earth’s ingenious sys- tems of reproducing life and the fertility of all of its inhabitants may lie at the center of the shift in worldview that must take place if we are to move beyond extractivism. A worldview based on regeneration and renewal rather than domination and depletion. —Klein 2014, 424 Can a society live without sacrifces, without aggression? Perhaps, if it obeys the moment of cosmic temporality. Te sacrifcial order overlays the natural rhythms with a diferent and cumulative temporality that dispenses and prevents us from attending to the moment. Once this occurs imprecisions multiply and grow. A catharsis becomes necessary. —Irigaray 1993b, 77 75 Copyright © 2020. SUNY Press. All rights reserved.
