Derrida and the Economy of Différance.

HARVEY, Irene E.

Item Number: 115053

Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1986.

First edition of the author’s analysis of Derrida as philosopher. Octavo, original cloth. Inscribed by the author on the title page in the date of publication, “in friendship from the author – REH 1986.” Near fine in a very good dust jacket.

Despite, or perhaps because of, the popularity of Jacques Derrida among literary theorist, the philosophical community has traditionally ignored or rejected his work. In this valuable introduction to the philosophical implications of Derrida's thought, Irene E. Harvey argues that Derrida is indeed a philosopher, perhaps the most significant of our time. Situating Derrida's philosophical contributions within the Continental tradition of Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, and Heidegger, Harvey demonstrates that deconstruction is an approach not only to texuality, but also to metaphysics.
