Derrida, Supplements by Jean-Luc Nancy

When Jean-Luc Nancy first encountered the work of Jacques Derrida in the 1960s, he knew he was hearing something new, a voice genuinely of its time. Thinking with and against each other over the course of their long friendship, the two thinkers reshaped the European intellectual landscape. Nancy's writings on Derrida, collected in this volume, reflect on the elements of their shared concerns with politics, the arts, religion, the fate of deconstruction, and the future of sense. Rather than studies, commentaries, or interpretations of Derrida's thought, they are responses to his presence—not exactly a presence to self, but a presence in the world.

Jean-Luc Nancy (1940–2021) was Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the Université de Strasbourg and one of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century's foremost thinkers of politics, art, and the body. His wide-ranging thought runs through many books, including Being Singular Plural, The Ground of the Image, Corpus, The Disavowed Community, and Sexistence. His book The Intruder was adapted into an acclaimed film by Claire Denis.

Anne O'Byrne is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Stony Brook University. She is the author of Natality and Finitude (Indiana, 2010), coeditor of Logics of Genocide (Routledge, 2020), and translator or cotranslator of four books by Jean-Luc Nancy.
