Derrida and the Writing of the Body

Michel Foucault refers to 1965-1970 as, in philosophical terms, 'the five brief, impassioned, jubilant, enigmatic years'. This book reinterprets Jacques Derrida's work from this period, most especially in L'Ecriture et la Difference, and argues that a transformation takes place here which has been marginalized in readings of his work.
