Herman Rapaport is Professor of English at the University of Southampton. Among his books is The Theory Mess, IsThere Truth in Art?, Between the Sign and the Gaze, andHeidegger and Derrida.
'Herman Rapaport is a strongly inventive, active reader of
Derrida's writings, both the more recent and those one may have
thought were assimilated years ago (but think again!). Bringing to
its task sharp critical tools, Later Derrida proposes insightful
interpretations of Derrida's latest work in the domain of politics
and ethics. In the process, it challenges some of the most
entrenched ideas about deconstruction.' - Peggy Kamuf'The book's
principal success has been to hold open the space for the arrival
of an unprecendented event on the "hither side of deconstruction,"
to stray from the point, to err in repeating that which came before
and to continue to question "what could take place tomorrow."' -
Partial Answers, Journal of Literature and The History of
Ideas'Rapaport's Later Derrida is a brave and independent book.' -
Simon Morgan Wortham'An important aim of the collection ... is to
"stress Derrida's relevance in terms of cultural studies" ... He
succeeds in doing this in the most rigorous and original way.' -
