Writing, language and binaries in the works of Jacques Derrida

Despite the fact that the views of J. Derrida has received a very widespread and worthy analysis, due to the innovation and grandiosity of his philosophy, it is impossible to exhaust them. The negative pathos of his concept of deconstruction makes the attitude towards the existing language and the world organized through language obvious. However, this circumstance somewhat obscures the positive potential of Derrida's categorical apparatus. The article proposes to distract from the well-known negative reading and look at the criticized phenomena from the point of view of their automation and autonomization of language, which turns epochal discursive concepts into phantoms of thinking. Derrida's works expose the uncontrollability and lack of ways to analyze the existing categorical apparatus for appropriating the world, which may well become the basis not only for the correct reading and evaluation of the working discourse, but also to lay the foundation for the processes of forming a new positive language.

Abstract

Despite the fact that the views of J. Derrida has received a very widespread and worthy analysis, due to the innovation and grandiosity of his philosophy, it is impossible to exhaust them. The negative pathos of his concept of deconstruction makes the attitude towards the existing language and the world organized through language obvious. However, this circumstance somewhat obscures the positive potential of Derrida's categorical apparatus. The article proposes to distract from the well-known negative reading and look at the criticized phenomena from the point of view of their automation and autonomization of language, which turns epochal discursive concepts into phantoms of thinking. Derrida's works expose the uncontrollability and lack of ways to analyze the existing categorical apparatus for appropriating the world, which may well become the basis not only for the correct reading and evaluation of the working discourse, but also to lay the foundation for the processes of forming a new positive language.
