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.
