Derrida, Deconstruction, and the Politics of Pedagogy - Peters Michael A.
Jacques Derrida is, arguably, the foremost philosopher of the humanities and their place in the university. Through his deconstructive readings and writings, Derrida reinvented the Western tradition by attending closely to those texts which constitute it. Over his long career he was concerned with the humanities' fate, status, place, and contribution.
From early in his career, Derrida occupied a marginal in-between space - simultaneously textual, literary, philosophical, and political - a space that permitted him a freedom to question, to He redefined its procedures and protocols, questioning and commenting upon the relationship between commentary and interpretation, the practice of quotation, the delimitation of a work and its singularity, its signature, and its context: the whole form of life of literary culture, together with the textual practices and conventions that shape it.
