Of Grammatology (week 8)

Join us for weekly discussions of Jacques Derrida's 1967 deconstruction of the speech/writing binary in western philosophy, Of Grammatology.

Required reading for this meeting: Part Two, Ch. 3, subheading "The Turn of Writing" (pg. 235) through the end of Ch. 4 "From/Of the Supplement to the Source" (pg. 344)

Most of us are reading the 2016 edition of the book. By now we've gotten through the main arguments of the book, so we're ending this series with a meeting on the last 100 pages. Feel free to skim for what most interests you/what you want to discuss.

We'll be meeting at Art Cafe + Bar in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.

This event is free but we're all still socially obligated to purchase something, and Art Cafe is a cool place that we should support! They have a bar and they serve coffee and tea among other non-alcoholic drinks, as well as food.
