Unlike other critical thinkers we have read, unlike for instance the Foucault of 1971 and 1973, Derrida does not explicitly seek in Nietzsche a model for critical theory, and does not look, exegetically, for a truth in Nietzsche. Yet Derrida, perhaps more than others, is deeply Nietzschean\u2014perhaps one of the most Nietzschean of our critics. And it\u2019s that paradox that reveals, perhaps, an element of genius in the text. Derrida expresses a Nietzschean understanding of truth, but does not go looking for it in Nietzsche. In fact, he couldn\u2019t. Derrida would not be able to look for truth in Nietzsche, because, for him, to read Nietzsche or to attempt to find truths in Nietzsche would really be nothing more than commenting on the jotted-down phrase, found in Nietzsche&#8217;s\u00a0unpublished manuscripts, \u201cI have forgotten my umbrella.&#8221; To help us decipher Derrida&#8217;s text and its implications, we are delighted to welcome Columbia professors Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak and Bruno Bosteels in New York and philosopher Danielle Cohen-Levinas in Paris.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NIETZSCHE\/derrida with Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak\u00a0and\u00a0Bruno Bosteels\u00a0in New York, and Danielle Cohen-Levinas in Paris.
