of the twenty-eight essay collection Jacques Derrida published in
two volumes in 1998 and 2003. In Volume I, Derrida advances his
reflection on many topics: psychoanalysis, theater, translation,
literature, representation, racism, and nuclear war, among others.
The essays in this volume also carry on Derrida's engagement with a
number of key thinkers and writers: Barthes, Benjamin, de Man,
Flaubert, Freud, Heidegger, Lacoue-Labarthe, Levinas, and Ponge.
Included in this volume are new or revised translations of seminal
essays (for example, "Psyche: Invention of the Other," "The Retrait
of Metaphor," "At This Very Moment in This Work Here I Am," "Tours
de Babel" and "Racism's Last Word"), as well as three essays that
appear here in English for the first time.
