Derrida and Africa takes up Jacques Derrida as a figure of thought
in relation to Africa, with a focus on Derrida's writings
specifically on Africa, which were influenced in part by his
childhood in El Biar. From chapters that take up Derrida as Mother
to contemplations on how to situate Derrida in relation to other
African philosophers, from essays that connect deconstruction and
diaspora to a chapter that engages the ways in which
Derrida-especially in a text such as Monolingualism of the Other:
or, the Prosthesis of Origin-is haunted by place to a chapter that
locates Derrida firmly in postapartheid South Africa, Derrida
in/and Africa is the insistent line of inquiry. Edited by Grant
Farred, this collection asks: What is Derrida to Africa?, What is
Africa to Derrida?, and What is this specter called Africa that
haunts Derrida?
