«Étrangers à nous-mêmes» is the philosophical essay by Julia Kristeva published in 1991 in paperback (293 pages, in French).
The work addresses the condition of the foreigner in Europe: from the Greek metics and Ruth to the thought of Montaigne, Kant, Freud or Camus. Kristeva connects it with the French Revolution and human rights, and proposes an ethics that respects the desire to live differently and the singularity of each person.
The original work appeared in 1988. It is number 156 in the Folio Essais collection and won the Prix Henri Hertz in 1989.
For readers interested in philosophy, psychoanalysis and contemporary French literature.
