Produktbeschreibung
During the academic year 1960-1961, Jacques Derrida, then assistant of general philosophy and logic at the Sorbonne, carried out a reading of Alain's phrase: "To think is to say no." This four-session master course already shows the signs of the deconstructive writing that would be to come. In it, Derrida dismantles what we mean when we say "yes" or "no", in addition to formulating and proposing for the first time the binomial "yes, no", a basic and original element of the act of thinking. Faced with this text, one has the impression of being faced with fundamental questions of Derrida's thought, which still retain their relevance today in an era in which it is often difficult to distinguish between thought and belief. Written by hand by Derrida during the Algerian war of independence, and until now unpublished, To Think is to Say No is the oldest text in the Derridean corpus to see the light of day thanks to an important labor publisher.
