Editorial Review Product Description Jacques Derrida (born 1930) is undoubtedly the single most influential figure in current Anglo-American literary theory. Yet many scholars and students, not to mention general readers, would be hard put to give an account of Derrida's own writings. In this admirably clear and intelligent introduction, Christopher Norris demonstrates that Derrida's texts should be understood as belonging more to philosophy than to literature. Norris explains the significance of Derrida's writing on texts in the Western philosophical tradition, from Plato to Kant, liegel, and tiusserl, placing him squarely within that tradition. He also discusses some of the reasons for the massive institutional resistance that has so far prevented philosophers from engaging seriously with Derrida's work. This book will be welcomed by readers in search of an introduction to Derrida's work that neither underrates its difficulties nor invests his ideas with a kind of protective mystique.

Inside and Outside
An introduction to Derrida and his related "différance" Derrida cites two importantpedigrees (as the title suggests):Husserl and (tacitly) de Saussure. Using the "course in general linguistics" of de Saussure,Derrida notes a certain degree of freedom, a "jeu," between thewords-as-symbols and the thought contents they produce.Exploiting deSaussure's note that the relation between the sign and the mental contentis arbitrary, Derrida questions the validity of any text (where the notionof text includes, but is not limited to, books, magazines, commercials,art, sex). Derrida sees behind any "text" its entirerecursive history, the weight of all the words, the mental experience ofthe reader. At the point he considers the reader's experience he startsto deal with phenomenology - the study proposed and defined by Husserlhimself in his Vienna and Paris lectures.A short definition might be thatPhenomenology is the study of how man mentally relates to the objects ofhis experience(I admit, debatably so). This book proposes Derrida'sfamous example of "différance" and its effect upon the Gallicallytrained ear and mind.So if you want to seem witty and "with-it"this introductory tome shall suffice. As far as my own deconstruction /critique of the work.As an introductory work it is dense.Derrida isoften criticized for losing himself in intellectual crevices, being prolix,and employing poor stylistics.These are not unmerited.Yet for thereader who wishes to move beyond the fashionability of tossing"deconstructionist" out at cocktail parties, this is a must read. It is certainly part of the 20th century canon. My own conclusions aremixed.In his later works Derrida becomes truly absurd, laughable, silly,and occasionally brilliant.Yet his work never fails to move its readerseither to agree that he is either an idiot, a bad writer, or thatphilosophy as we know it has long been dead. Perhaps like a Socraticgadfly, Derrida is moving us to an entire gestalt shift vis-à-vis ourrelationship with philosophy and social institutions. A solid backgroundof Kant/Hegel, as well as a familiarity with lingustics (the aforementionedcourse in general lingustics of de Saussure) greatly ease the difficulty inpenetrating his work. ...

Editorial Review Product Description Sometimes called “obscure” and branded “abstruse” by his critics, the Derrida found in this book is open and engaging, reflecting on a long career challenging important tenets of European philosophy from Plato to Marx. The contemporary meaning of Derrida’s work is also examined, including a discussion of his many political activities. But, as Derrida says, “To philosophize is to learn to die”; as such, this philosophical discussion turns to the realities of his imminent death—including life with a fatal cancer. In the end, this interview remains a touching final look at a long and distinguished career. Jacques Derrida was director of studies at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales and professor of humanities at the University of California, Irvine. Among the most recent of his many books translated into English are Eyes of the University, Negotiations, Who’s Afraid of Philosophy?, and Rogues: Two Essays on Reason. Customer Reviews (3)

aPOPHATICALLY, by way of naming... The second essay has a little more to sink one's teeth into. The subject is "negative theology" as such, or the (im)possibility thereof. A very penetrating reading of Angelus Silesius' The Cherubinic Wanderer. The third essay, "Khora" -- non-placeable place, the third genus -- is a reading of Plato's notion of that "mother", "nurse", "the Receiver" that gives place for all that "takes place": A placing, a positing of displacement and differance, a displacement by way of oscillation between two types of oscillation: the double exclusion(neither/nor) and the participation(both this and that). In short, this collection of essays opens up another (that is to say, the very same) horizon of thinking toward what used to be under the care of religion, and as such can be rewarding reading to those who are already aware of the necessity of reworking the language of absence without resorting to what was once named "mysticism". If Nagarjuna were born into the French language in the 20th century, he'd probably speak like this. The writing on the back cover says that the last essay will be of particular interest to those in the burgeoning fields of "space studies"(architecture, urbanism, design). Interest? Maybe. Clarity and enlightenment? I wouldn't bet my lunch money on it myself. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Are your students baffled by Baudrillard? Dazed by Deleuze? Confused by Kristeva? Other beginners’ guides can feel as impenetrable as the original texts to students who "think in images." Contemporary Thinkers Reframed instead uses the language of the arts to explore the usefulness in practice of complex ideas. Short, contemporary and accessible, these lively books utiliZe actual examples of artworks, films, television shows, works of architecture, fashion and even computer games to explain and explore the work of the most commonly taught thinkers. Conceived specifically for the visually-minded, the series will prove invaluable to students right across the visual arts. 'Deconstruction’ is touted in every visual area from architecture to fashion, yet few really understand what Derrida’s notorious concept means, much less his elusive idea of "différance." In fact Derrida’s work can seem almost impenetrable. This guide explains Derrida’s key concepts through examples from across the whole spectrum of the arts, looking at the work of architects such as Bernard Tschumi and Daniel Libeskind, fashion designers such as Ann Demeulemeister and at the work of artists as varied as Kara Walker, Yinka Shonibare MBE, Rachel Whiteread and Jeff Wall. Showing what Derrida’s work really "means" in practice, this short guide makes this thinker’s complex work accessible to a wider public. |
