Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions.  In the past two decades, the \"movement\" of deconstruction has bad tremendous impact on a number of academic, disciplines in the United States. However, its force has been rather limited in the field of philosophy, despite the fact that in Europe the practice of deconstruction emerged in the work of philosophers. Although the reasons for this can be debated, two of the more obvious explanations are the mainstream Anglo-American philosophers rarely studied the German and French philosophical traditions in great detail, and deconstruction's focus on discourse and interpretation has made it more attractive to the literary and humanistic disciplines.   With this context, Strategies of Deconstruction  focuses on the early work of Jacques Derrida, the French philosopher who introduced deconstruction in Speech and Phenomena,his study of Edmund Husserl, and Of Grammatology, and whose philosophical reputation stems in no small part from his work on Husserl. In examining the philosophical import of Derrida's theories of reading, text, and language, specifically as they related to Speech and Phenomena,J. Claude Evans makes careful reference to Husserl's own texts. His analysis indicates that there are many systematic irregularities in Derrida's study and that without those irregularities Derrida's conclusions cannot be substantiated.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50368522223889,"sku":"CIN0816619263G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":51328317980945,"sku":"CIN0816619263A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0816619263.jpg?v=1764842737"},{"product_id":"to-work-at-the-foundations-book-j-claude-evans-9780792343172","title":"To Work at the Foundations","description":"Aron Gurwitsch (1900-73) was one of the most important  figures in the phenomenological movement between the 1920s and the  1970s. Through his introduction of Gestalt theoretical concepts into  phenomenology, he exerted a powerful influence on Maurice  Merleau-Ponty and others. The contributions to this memorial volume,  most written by friends and students of Gurwitsch, contain critical  studies of the work of Aron Gurwitsch and attempts to extend his  philosophical analyses to new problems and fields. Ranging from formal  ontology through the philosophy of the social sciences to the  interpretation of Kant, the essays assembled here are both a tribute  to and a continuation of the philosophical legacy of Aron Gurwitsch.  The contributions will be of interest to advanced undergraduates and  graduate students, and to specialists in a wide range of areas.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007092818193,"sku":"NIN9780792343172","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52148826439953,"sku":"NLS9780792343172","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0792343174.jpg?v=1751106985"},{"product_id":"to-work-at-the-foundations-book-j-claude-evans-9789401062879","title":"To Work at the Foundations","description":"Aron Gurwitsch (1900-73) was one of the most important  figures in the phenomenological movement between the 1920s and the  1970s.

We eat, inevitably, at the expense of other living creatures. How can we take the lives of plants and animals while maintaining a proper respect for both ecosystems and the individuals who live in them-including ourselves? In this book philosopher J. Claude Evans challenges much of the accepted wisdom in environmental ethics and argues that human participation in the natural cycles of life and death can have positive moral value.  With a guide for the nonphilosophical reader, and set against the background of careful and penetrating critiques of Albert Schweitzer's principle of reverence for life and Paul Taylor's philosophy of respect for nature, Evans uses hunting and catch-and-release fishing as test cases in calling for a robust sense of membership in the natural world. The result is an approachable, existential philosophy that emphasizes the positive value of human involvement in natural processes in which life and death, giving and receiving, self and other are intertwined.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52821075132689,"sku":"NLS9780791464441","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780791464441.jpg?v=1764331101"},{"product_id":"with-respect-for-nature-book-j-claude-evans-9780791464434","title":"With Respect for Nature","description":"Explores how humans can take the lives of animals and plants while maintaining a proper respect both for ecosystems and for those who live in them.
