The Purest of Bastards: Works of Mourning, Art and Affirmation in the Thought of Jacques Derrida - American & European Philosophy S.
David Farrell Krell
To counter the view of Derrida's thought as basically destructive, the author invites the reader to understand how Derrida's philosophy maybe seen as affirmative. The book explores what mourning means in Derrida's writing and how the labours of mourning and affirmation are mediated by works of art.
