Derrida and Foucault are without question two of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Both share a similar motivation to challenge our fundamental structures of meaning -in texts, political structures and epistemic and discursive practices – in order to inspire new ways of thinking.
Between Foucault and Derrida explores the notorious Cogito debate and includes: the central articles, an important piece by Jean-Marie Beyssade, along with a letter Foucault wrote to Beyssade in response – both these pieces available for the first time in English translation. In the second part of the book, 10 essays written by some of the most well-known scholars working in contemporary continental philosophy address the various philosophical intersections and divergences of these two profoundly important thinkers.
