Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on Jacques Derrida's profound impact on literature, Leslie Hill offers an accessible introduction to his complex writings, requiring no prior knowledge. The book delves into Derrida's interpretations of significant literary figures from the last century and a half, clarifying his position as neither a literary theorist nor a critic. Hill emphasizes that deconstruction is a rigorous and affirmative approach to understanding texts and textuality, aiming to demystify Derrida's often misrepresented ideas.
