Bertran...

... its distance from postmodernist surface reading, overt historicism, and the highly philosophized, translative idioms of deconstruction. Though the de Man affair had exploded and run its course by 1989, the year that Werner Hamacher , Neil Hertz, and Thomas Keenan published Responses: On Paul de...

... to Schey, this idea condenses a cruelly optimistic dream that theories of impasse share as well as scrutinize.

... the ideas of Carl Schmitt, Giorgio Agam- ben, Walter Benjamin, and Jacques Derrida.

There is much in this book...

..., this controversy in fact has a ring of familiarity, recalling for us the posthumous revelation of Paul de Man as a writer for Nazi-controlled journals in Belgium before he emigrated to the United States.
