"Originally published in French in 1982, this collection is a good
representation of the range of Derrida's working styles."-South
Atlantic Review "No writer has probed the riddle of the Other with
more patience and insight than Jacques Derrida. . . . By rigorously
interrogating the writings of major Western figures, Derrida not
only forces a rethinking of the nature of reading and writing but
calls into question basic as-sumptions about ourselves and our
world. . . . The Ear of the Other will be especially useful to
people who have little or no prior acquaintance with Derrida's
work. . . . Through a careful reexamination of Nietzsche's
autobiography Ecce Homo, Derrida elaborates some of the
far-reaching implications of twentieth-century reinterpretations of
human subjectivity."-Mark C. Taylor, Los Angeles Times Book Review.
"Ably translated. . . . The long 'Roundtable on Autobiography' . .
. is authentic philosophical discussion, illuminating not only the
preceding lecture but Derrida's work as well."-Choice.
