This volume makes a significant contribution to both the study of
Derrida and of modernist studies. The contributors argue, first,
that deconstruction is not “modern”; neither is it
“postmodern” nor simply “modernist.” They also posit that
deconstruction is intimately connected with literature, not because
deconstruction would be a literary way of doing philosophy, but
because literature stands out as a “modern” notion. The
contributors investigate the nature and depth of Derrida’s
affinities with writers such as Joyce, Kafka, Antonin Artaud,
Georges Bataille, Paul Celan, Maurice Blanchot, Theodor Adorno,
Samuel Beckett, and Walter Benjamin, among others. With its strong
connection between philosophy and literary modernism, this highly
original volume advances modernist literary study and the
relationship of literature and philosophy.
