Derrida, Jacques. Of grammatology [ID D24730].
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak schreibt im Vorwort : "Even though Derrida points out in Of Grammatology that Chinese writing "functioned as a sort of European hallucination,"his own project does not go beyond the ethnocentrism of a repeated reference to the other culture as a bearer—a sign—of the limits of the West . . . By insisting that logocentrism is "Western," Derrida forecloses the possibility that similar problems of the "proper" exist in as deep-rooted ways in the non-West and require a deconstruction that is at least as thorough and sophisticated as the one he performs for "his" tradition.”
