Dialogue and Deconstruction by Diane P Michelfelder
Brand: PLYQ
Product Description
Before the encounter in 1981 between HansGeorg Gadamer and Jacques Derrida there had been virtually no confrontation or dialogue between hermeneutics in Germany and poststructuralism in France nor has there been since then. Part I of this book makes available for the first time in English the complete texts of the encounter at the Goethe Institute in Paris. This exchange raised such issues as Gadamers relation to psychoanalytic interpretation the questionability of texts Heideggers reading of Nietzsche and the dialogical aspect of language. Part II offers further reflections by Gadamer on the encounter itself and its relation of hermeneutics to deconstruction. Among the issues covered are Derridas interpretation of Destruktion in Heidegger Derridas attack on logocentrism in Heideggers interpretation of Nietzsche and the relation of Heidegger hermeneutics and deconstruction to dialectic. Part III offers commentaries on the encounter from a variety of perspectives. The authors assess the original encounter as well as Gadamers subsequent reflections on it.show more
