Few thinkers of the twentieth century have so profoundly and radically transformed our understandingof writing and literature as Jacques Derrida (1930â2004). This book provides an accessible introduction to Derridaâs writings on literature which presupposes no prior knowledge of his work. It explores in detail Derridaâs relationship to literary theory and criticism, and offers close readings of some of his best known essays. This introduction will help those coming to Derridaâs work for the first time, and suggests further directions to take in studying this hugely influential thinker.
