About This Item
West Lafayette, IN: Purdue Univ Pr, 1986. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 9.20 x 6.25 x 1.10 inches. The first edition, second printing of ""Derrida on the Mend"" by Robert R. Magliola, published in August 1986 by Purdue University Press, is a unique and intellectually rich volume. Encased in natural beige cloth-covered boards, the book's exterior is tastefully adorned with metallic royal blue lettering along the spine, creating an aesthetically pleasing contrast. While the covers are in great shape, a slight horizontal outward bow and very light foxing to the cloth contribute to the book's character.Maintaining Very Good condition, the binding is square and tight, ensuring a durable structure. A small light abrasion on the front flyleaf is a minor blemish in an otherwise clean and unmarked interior. The book's original dust jacket, in Very Good condition, adds to its allure. Although displaying some light surface wear and a small tear at the bottom corner near the spine measuring less than 3/4"", the jacket is well-preserved.The book, thoughtfully divided into four parts, begins with a comprehensive explication and critique of Derrida, offering a valuable service to contemporary philosophers and literary theorists. The second part introduces a recension of Heideggerian thought termed centric mysticism, with original applications to literature. The third part delves into the analysis of Nagarjunist technique and develops a ""differential"" Zen, with a focus on Buddhist poetry and relevance to Buddhologists. The fourth part extends the ""differentialism"" concept to monotheism and Christian theology, proposing a non-entitative trinitarianism with significant implications for contemporary theology.The book is further enriched by two appendices that concretely apply its insights to literary theory and criticism. The careful packaging for shipment ensures protection from external elements, with the inclusion of a USPS electronic tracking number issued free of charge. For additional information or images of the book, interested readers are encouraged to contact the seller. Overall, this edition of ""Derrida on the Mend"" stands as an intellectually stimulating and well-preserved work, making it a valuable addition to any collection.
