About Jacques Derrida
Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) was a French philosopher known for developing deconstruction, a form of semiotic analysis. He challenged traditional notions of language and writing, proposing that meaning is constructed through language and is inherently unstable. Derrida's work influenced fields beyond philosophy, including literary theory, cultural studies, and political theory. He was a prolific writer, publishing numerous books and essays that continue to spark debates among scholars and students alike.
