Derrida is dead...
Sad news for the legions of PoMo:
PARIS (Reuters) – French philosopher Jacques Derrida, the founder of the school of deconstructionism, has died of cancer at the age of 74, France Info radio said on Saturday.Read the rest here.
I first learned of Jacques Derrida at school. Soon after, he became one of the leading sources of inspiration for a short film that I made (you’ll have to look around for my name at that link — it’s about halfway down). I always kind of fantasized that I would be able to take a class from Derrida one day; time for that dream to end.
