It is an original theoretical advance which I believe will mark an essential step forward in the field.\"--Jacques Derrida\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Staten has plenty of philosophical acuity and critical sensitivity as well as wide philosophical scholarship, and he writes in a clear, muscular style which illuminates the issues sometimes profoundly without in any way concealing their difficulty and complxity. . . . \u003ci\u003eWittgenstein and Derrida\u003c\/i\u003e should be essential reading not only for anyone interested in the current critical debate but also for philosophers.\"--Bernard Harrison, University of Sussex, England\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book examines Aristotle, Kant, and especially Husserl to bring to light Derrida's development of the classical philosophical concepts of form (eidos), verbal formula (logos), the object-in-general, and time. The later work of Wittgenstein is then examined in detail and Wittgenstein's \"zigzag\" writing in the Philosophical Investigations is interpreted as deconstructive syntax, directed, like Derrida's work, against the dominance of the philosophical concern with the form of an entity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHenry Staten is a professor of English and philosophy at the University of Utah.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eHenry Staten is a professor of English and philosophy at the University of Utah.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"University of Nebraska Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50845329195282,"sku":"9780803291690","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_1aa57ac1-f205-4e13-ba3c-735cce4b906b.jpg?v=1737348315","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/wittgenstein-and-derrida-9780803291690","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
