This course is an introduction to the thought of the French philosopher Jacques Derrida. We will focus on his most important work, his "Grammatology", though a series of some of his essays will also be part of the readings. Other readings will include the works of authors crucial to Derrida's thought and to an understanding of the "Grammatology": Heidegger, Nietzsche, Freud, Saussure, Rousseau and Levi-Strauss.
