Jacques Derrida

3 standalone books

Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) was a French philosopher who developed the philosophy of deconstruction, applying it through close readings of Ferdinand de Saussure's linguistics and of Husserlian and Heideggerian phenomenology. He is one of the major figures associated with post-structuralism and postmodern philosophy, though he distanced himself from both terms.
