The contributors argue, first, that deconstruction is not \"modern\"; neither is it \"postmodern\" nor simply \"modernist.\" They also posit that deconstruction is intimately connected with literature, not because deconstruction would be a literary way of doing philosophy, but because literature stands out as a \"modern\" notion. The contributors investigate the nature and depth of Derrida's affinities with writers such as Joyce, Kafka, Antonin Artaud, Georges Bataille, Paul Celan, Maurice Blanchot, Theodor Adorno, Samuel Beckett, and Walter Benjamin, among others. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith its strong connection between philosophy and literary modernism, this highly original volume advances modernist literary study and the relationship of literature and philosophy.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJean-Michel Rabaté\u003c\/b\u003e is one of the world's foremost literary theorists.
