About this product

Product Information

In this series of dialogues, Derrida discusses and elaborates onsome of the central themes of his work, such as the problems ofgenesis, justice, authorship and death. Combining autobiographicalreflection with philosophical enquiry, Derrida illuminates theideas that have characterized his thought from its beginning to thepresent day. If there is one feature that links thesecontributions, it is the theme of singularity - the uniqueness ofthe individual, the resistance of existence to philosophy, thetemporality of the singular and exceptional moment, and the problemof exemplarity. The second half of this book contains an essay by MaurizioFerraris, in which he explores the questions of indication, timeand the inscription of the transcendental in the empirical. A workof outstanding philosophy and scholarship, the essay is developedin close proximity to Derrida and in dialogue with figures such asPlato, Aristotle, Plotinus, Kant, Hegel and Heidegger. It therebyprovides a useful introduction to the philosophy of one of Italy'smost prominent philosophers as well as an excellent complement toDerrida's own ideas. A Taste for the Secret consists of material that has neverbefore appeared in English. It will be of interest to second-yearundergraduates, graduate students and academics in philosophy,modern languages, literature, literary theory and the humanitiesgenerally.
