About this video
Runtime: 22 minsSteven Shakespeare discusses how Jacques Derrida, a 20th century philosopher, has developed his theology. Jacques Derrida was an Algerian-born French philosopher who founded 'deconstruction' as a way of critiquing traditional interpretations; for example of texts or institutions. He argued that linguistic explanation is created not given, and replaced the norms of language, ethics and aesthetics with a notion of meaning as expressed in context and relationship.
