Michel Foucault refers to 1965-1970 as, in philosophical terms,
'the five brief, impassioned, jubilant, enigmatic years'. This book
reinterprets Jacques Derrida's work from this period, most
especially in L'A0/00criture et la Difference (Writing and
Difference), and argues that a transformation takes place here
which has been marginalized in readings of his work to date. Irwin
follows with a look at how the 'grammatological opening' becomes
crucial for Derrida's work in the 1970s and beyond, incorporating
one of his last readings of embodiment from 2000. By drawing our
attention to the politics of desire and sexuality, this
groundbreaking book engages with the work of key continental
theorists, including Artaud, Bataille, Nietzsche, Heidegger,
Habermas and Cixous, whilst also examining Derrida's relationship
with Plato and feminist theory. It will appeal to a wide range of
readers within the social sciences and philosophy, particularly
those with interests in gender and sexuality, social theory,
continental thought, queer studies and literary theory.
