Encountering Derrida - Legacies and Futures of Deconstruction

Encountering Derrida explores the points of engagement between Jacques Derrida and a host of other European thinkers, past and present, in order to counter recent claims that the era of deconstruction is finally drawing to a close. The book rereads Derrida in order to renew deconstruction''s various conceptions of language, poetry, philosophy, institutions, difference and the future. This impressive collection of essays from the world''s leading Derrida scholars re-evaluates Derrida''s legacy and looks forward to the possible futures of deconstruction by confronting various challenges to Derrida''s thought. Collectively, the essays argue that Derrida must be read alongside others , an approach that produces some surprising new accounts of this challenging critical thinker.
