Monique Wittig (13 July 1935, Dannemarie, France - 3 January 2003, Tucson, USA) was a French novelist, philosopher, theorist and lesbian feminist activist. Her concept of the ‘heterosexual contract’ had a major impact on feminist theory. Her literary work is characterised by a stylistic and semantic quest to go beyond the gender distinction. [1]
