Jacques Derrida is undoubtedly one of the foremost figures in the
development of twentienth-century literary theory. The school of
'deconstruction' that has grown out of his work has been either
absorbed into the corpus of modern literary theory, or criticized
for its departures from the original texts of Derrida in whose name
it is practised. Timothy Clark's innovative book traces instead
sources of Derrida's practice of 'literature' as a form of
philosophical thinking, in the work of Heidegger and Blanchot. It
offers a welcome stylistic clarity in a field beleaguered by its
philosophical and linguistic difficulty. Clark gives close readings
of key texts including Heidegger's Conversation on a Country Path,
Blanchot's L'attente l'oubli, and Derrida's Pas and Signsponge, and
widens the scope of his discussion of philosophical cultivation of
'literary' forms to include in addition the issues of creativity,
influence and responsibility as they appear in the work of Lyotard
and Levinas.
