Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 700 pages. Published in 2016. Massive Biography on subject. One of the best books, among so many out there, on the life and achievement of Jacques Derrida. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Presents Benoit Peeters' "Derrida: A Biography" in a felicitous English translation. A "deconstruction" of the founder of deconstruction. "Tells the story of a Jewish boy from Algiers, excluded from school at the age of twelve, who went on to become the most widely translated philosopher in the world: A vulnerable, tormented man who, throughout his life, continued to see himself as unwelcome in the French university system. We are plunged into the different worlds in which Derrida lived and worked: Pre-independence Algeria, the microcosm of the Ecole Normale Superieure, the cluster of structuralist thinkers, and the turbulent events of 1968 and after. We meet the remarkable series of leading writers and philosophers with whom Derrida struck up a friendship: Louis Althusser, Emmanuel Levinas, Jean Genet, and Helene Cixous, among others. We also witness an equally long series of often brutal polemics fought over crucial issues with thinkers such as Michel Foucault, Jacques Lacan, John R. Searle, and Jurgen Habermas as well as several controversies that went far beyond academia, the best known of which concerned Heidegger and Paul de Man. We follow a series of courageous political commitments in support of Nelson Mandela, illegal immigrants, and gay marriage. And we watch as a concept - deconstruction - takes wing and exerts an extraordinary influence beyond the philosophical world, on literary studies, architecture, law, theology, feminism, queer theory, and postcolonial studies" (Pubisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Jacques Derrida collectors. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. This is the single most beautiful copy we have ever seen. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws ("Very Good"). This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER JACQUES DERRIDA TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0745656153. no.…

Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 156 pages. Published in 1999. The author's fullest statement on ethics. One of the most important philosophical texts of the 20th century. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, particularly the Softcover Edition. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only and as part of Stanford University's legendary "Meridian Crossing: Aesthetics" Series. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Jacques Derrida's "Adieu: Emmanuel Levinas" in a felicitous English translation. The speech given by the philosopher at Emmanuel Levinas' funeral on December 27, 1995 in its definitive, final form. An ethics of hospitality as the authentic response to every human encounter, particularly of The Other (foreigners, immigrants, minorities, poor people), Derrida reaffirms and expounds on Levinas' "face-to-face" ethics, and in sharp contrast to the ethics of say, Alain Badiou and Slavoj Zizek, among contemporary thinkers. "The word 'adieu' names a fundamental characteristic of human being: The salutation or benediction prior to all constative language (in certain circumstances, one can say 'adieu' at the moment of meeting), and that given at the moment of separation, sometimes forever, as at the moment of death, it is also the a-dieu, for God or to God before and in any relation to the other. Extends his work on Levinas in previously unexplored directions via a radical re-reading of Totality and Infinity and other texts, including the lesser-known Talmudic readings. Argues that Levinas, especially in Totality and Infinity, bequeaths to us an 'immense treatise of hospitality', a meditation on the welcome offered to The Other. Derrida raises these questions in the most explicit of terms, moving back and forth between philosophical argument and the political discussion of immigration laws, peace, the state of Israel, and xenophobia, reminding us with every move that thinking is not a matter of neutralizing abstraction, but a gesture of hospitality for what happens and still may happen" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Jacques Derrida collectors. This title is a great book. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original by a University Press. Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. One of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER JACQUES DERRIDA TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0804732671. no.…
