Description

Jonathan Culler's On Deconstruction is an authoritative synthesis of Derrida's thought and an analysis of the relationship between his philosophical writings and literary criticism. This landmark work explores deconstruction in terms of psychoanalytic, feminist, and reader-response criticism.

Culler's book provides a comprehensive guide to understanding modern critical thought, while also assessing deconstruction's place within cultural theory today. This edition marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of its first publication, featuring a new preface by the author that surveys deconstruction's history since the 1980s.
