Literature, in Theory: Tropes, Subjectivities, Responses & Responsibilities
ISBN: 9781441161529 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Jacques Derrida has argued about the difference between literature and theory that despite its institutional status, part of its institution is the right of literature to say anything. Literature cannot be defined as such, and as soon as one seeks to produce a reading of the literary, complications arise. Yet despite its institutional significance, theory remains something many wish would go away; and which, for others, is still not read, is misread, and remains to be read. Like literature, it remains as an enigmatic identity, resistant to definition, but subject to misperceptions and open to...

ISBN: 9780333687772 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This text contests the notion that what Jacques Derrida does can be turned into a theory for literary interpretation.

In this introductory study to the work of Jacques Derrida, Julian Wolfreys introduces the reader to a range of Derrida's interests and concerns, while offering readings, informed by Derrida's thought, of canonical and less well known literary works.
