Review
'...Trifonas and Peters are to be commended for putting together a vital collection that speaks directly to the crisis of the modern university in general and to the future of the humanities in particular. Deconstructing Derrida should be requried reading for all academics'. - Kevin A. Aho - The European Legacy
Product Description
Responding to Jacques Derrida's vision for what a "new" humanities should strive toward, Peter Trifonas and Michael Peters gather together in a single volume original essays by major scholars in the humanities today. Using Derrida's seven programmatic theses as a springboard, the contributors aim to reimagine, as Derrida did, the tasks for the new humanities in such areas as history of literature, history of democracy, history of profession, idea of sovereignty, and history of man.
