After the birth/death of Kant/Derrida
In this paper I explore some points of cross-over (as well as points of difference) between Kant’s framing of critique and Derrida’s deconstruction of this frame. I begin by situating the question concerning “where we stand now” in terms of some of Kant’s late (unpublished) thoughts on meta...

| description | In this paper I explore some points of cross-over (as well as points of
difference) between Kant’s framing of critique and Derrida’s deconstruction
of this frame. I begin by situating the question concerning “where we stand
now” in terms of some of Kant’s late (unpublished) thoughts on metaphysics
and “Fortschritt” (stepping-forward and progress) in his “What Real
Fortschritte has Metaphysics Made in Germany since the Time of Leibniz and
Wolff?” I show how Kant inadvertently tears open a deconstructive space at
the center of critique (a framing of a metaphysics of the future, of the
to-come [Zukunft] which never properly comes) while eschewing an attempt to
walk through it. With this in mind, I then read Derrida’s picking up of this
tear in his discussions of the Parergon, Ergon and the hors d’oeuvres-the
starter outside and before the main work-in The Truth in Painting. My aim is
to unravel a view in which we can say simultaneously, perhaps metaphorically
but also methodologically, that Derrida’s death frames Kant’s birth, and
that the birth of deconstruction frames the death of critique. |
