| Synopsis: |
Addressing both the humanities and the social sciences, this volume aims to explore the enduring significance of the work of Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) in the field of cultural theory. It assembles a variety of articles by internationally renowned scholars from different academic disciplines and traditions. Contrary to recent commemorative publications on Derrida's oeuvre, this volume proposes to critically evaluate and rethink key concepts in Derrida's work within the present state of affairs in cultural theory. Centred around four main topics (manoeuvres, societies, images and fictions), the sections propose a creative and contemporary reading of `Derrida' and its openings to new work in cultural theory. Ce livre qui se destine a la fois aux humanites et aux etudes sociales tente d'explorer la signification durable de l'÷uvre de Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) dans le champ de la theorie culturelle. Il rassemble un ensemble d'articles varies ecrits par des chercheurs de renommee internationale provenant de differentes disciplines et traditions academiques. S'opposant par la a la majorite du flot de publications recentes sur l'÷uvre de Derrida ce volume se propose d'evaluer et de repenser d'un point de vue critique les concepts cle de Derrida tenant compte de l'etat actuel de la recherche en etudes culturelles. Centrees autour de quatre domaines majeurs (man÷uvres - societes - images - fictions), les sections offrent une lecture creatrice et actuelle de `Derrida' et des ouvertures que sa pensee permet vers une nouvelle idee de la theorie culturelle. |
