His ideas of reading and writing, his notion of de-construction, his reinterpretations of phenomenology, of psychoanalysis, and of structuralism have profoundly influenced the vanguard of European and American criticism and have occasioned lively controversy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithout a knowledge of Of Grammatology the American scholar has a simply inaccurate view of the French critical advance-guard, Spivak writes. For in the final analysis, Derrida, even as he questions the notion of correction, corrects the common assumption of the two mutually opposed French critical tendencies-phenomenology and structuralism. He argues that both spring from the view of time fostered by the necessarily unscientific metaphysics of presence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis role of exposing the common assumption shared by combatants in a controversy raises Derrida's importance above merely the French scene. Derrida finds his place in the most clear-sighted European intellectual a tradition of the critique in the Kantian sense. As his work progresses, Derrida elaborates the risk that even his own work would be questioned by the most radical elements of his thought. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eREVIEW\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGayatri Spivak’s authoritative translation of Jacques Derrida’s De la Grammatologie is an event of great importance for humanistic studies in the English reading world.
