Edited by Yubraj Aryal, Vernon W. Cisney, Nicolae Morar, Christopher Penfield

Hardback

Description

Explores the biographical, historical and philosophical connections between Jacques Derrida and Michel FoucaultDerrida and Foucault are unquestionably two of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century.

Both share a similar motivation to challenge our fundamental structures of meaning – in texts, political structures, and epistemic and discursive practices – in order to inspire new ways of thinking.

Between Foucault and Derrida explores the notorious Cogito debate and includes: the central articles, an important piece by Jean-Marie Beyssade, along with a letter Foucault wrote to Beyssade in response – both these pieces available for the first time in English translation.

In the second part of the book, 10 essays written by some of the most well-known scholars working in contemporary continental philosophy address the various philosophical intersections and divergences of these two profoundly important thinkers. The first collection of the central essays involved in the Cogito debate between Foucault and DerridaIncludes the first English translations of Jean-Marie Beyssade’s important 1973 article on the debate and Foucault's letter in response to itSome of the best-known scholars working in continental philosophy today examine where Foucault and Derrida converge and diverge, and how they ultimately shaped each other’s projectsContributorsAmy Allen • Ellen Armour • Yubraj Aryal • Jean-Marie Beyssade • Vernon W.
