Recenzje

Until the publication of Timothy Holland's book, we knew that Derrida was an avid viewer of films, and that he had been interviewed a few times on the topic of cinema. Now we know so much more. Not only has Holland unearthed every archival piece, he has crafted an ingenious compendium of the ways in which cinematic questions haunt Derrida's work, and rightly emphasized, among those questions, ideas concerning belief, credence and trust that are central to the moving image. Combining detailed knowledge of Derrida, and a keen film theoretical intelligence, The Traces of Jacques Derrida's Cinema has convincingly 'busted' what were previously little more than indistinct ghostings.
