Derrida: Profanations presents a re-appraisal of Jacques Derrida's
deconstruction. If philosophy articulates what it means to be
human, then deconstruction, which Patrick O'Connor argues consigns
all existence to a mortal, profane and worldly life remains
radically philosophical. The assertion demands an analysis of
Derrida's radicalisation of the key philosophers who influenced
him, as well as a rebuttal of theological accounts of
deconstruction. This book closely examines how the phenomenological
lineage is received in deconstruction, especially the relation
between deconstruction and Derrida's radical readings of Hegel,
Husserl, Levinas and Heidegger. This book presents a theorisation
of deconstruction as profane, atheistic and egalitarian. It reveals
how deconstruction holds the resources to think ontology as a
multiplicity of worlds through demonstrates the ways in which
Derrida expresses a phenomenology' which disjoints humans'
orientation to the world. Deconstruction is characterized as
radically hubristic. For deconstruction, nothing is sacred. If
nothing sustains itself as separate, exclusive or sacrosanct, then
nothing can sustain the implementation of its own hierarchy.
