Essential History: Jacques Derrida and the Development of Deconstruction

Joshua Kates
Role: Author

Such a view is in fact “essential” if Derrida studies are to remain a vital field of scholarly inquiry, and if the humanities, more generally, are to have access to a replenishing source of living theoretical concerns.
