The Work of Mourning
(0 reviews)
"Jacques Derrida is, in the words of the New York Times, "perhaps the world's most famous philosopher - if not the only famous philosopher." He often provokes controversy as soon as his name is mentioned. But he also inspires the respect that comes from an illustrious career, and, among many who were his colleagues and peers, he inspired friendship. The Work of Mourning is a collection that honors those friendships in the wake of passing."--BOOK JACKET.
