Cover for MCKENNA: Violence and Difference: Girard, Derrida, and Deconstruction

Violence and Difference

Girard, Derrida, and Deconstruction

McKenna explicates key elements of the anthropology of Rene Girard and the literary theory of Jacques Derrida in terms of each other--to create an interpretive strategy that he hopes will "salvage deconstruction from the flashy sterility it favors."
