Zeynep Direk | Companion to Derrida

This is the home of all topics from the old forum. ontic-philosophy.com was the original incarnation of this site back in 2017/18 which was ran on a myBB platform. A Tree Stump (formely Ontical) saved a backup of the site before taking it down. In 2025 the forum was ressurected into a Buddypress/phpBB site on indieagora.com and then into this new Atrium custom build platform on indieagora.com. Feel free to add to the discussions and to ressurect old posts. You can also add new topics if you like.

Zeynep Direk | Companion to Derrida

'Deconstruction is not demolition, but rather de-sedimentation'

Boom! Derrida meets Wittgenstein!


Anything that has been constructed can be deconstructed and therefore reassembled and transformed, Deconstruction merely destabilises and adds plasticity to what appears fixed

The commentary on time and substance is interesting- I think I can see a development of the eternal return in Nietzsche in this chapter.

Haven't watched this yet, but I think the Caputo essay is great.

Deconstruction is structured like a religion.
