System and Writing in the Philosophy of Jacques Derrida

Informationen zum Autor Author Christopher Johnson writes this book from a position of freedom because he is not a pastor or an officer in a church, and therefore, not subject to restrictions from a board of church elders or denominational beliefs. Because he has no formal theological training, there is also no bias given to a particular school of thought. Instead, he offers the perspective of a faithful witness for Christ, with the goal of insuring that He gains all glory. The author thinks that this is vital because oftentimes the truth is made up of bits and pieces of multiple opposing viewpoints.An important new critical analysis of Derrida's theory of writing, based upon close readings of key texts.
