Deconstruction
1. Deconstruction began as a philosophical movement that questioned metaphysical assumptions in Western philosophy. Thinkers like Rene Descartes and Fredrick Nietzsche began questioning the objective truth of language.
2. Jacques Derrida developed deconstruction as a form of semiotic analysis that disputed philosophical centers of meaning and binary oppositions. He analyzed how meanings shift within language.
3. Deconstruction examines how texts undermine or defer fixed meanings through ambiguities in signs and changing relationships between signifiers and signifieds. It aims to "de-center" the search for transcendental truths or meanings.
Deconstruction
Post-structuralism reacted against the perceived authoritarianism of structuralism. It asserts that language is ambiguous and meanings change, so texts can contain contradictory meanings. Deconstructionists are interested in what lies beneath the surface of a text and the world's influence on a text. They believe meanings are actively created by readers rather than resolved, and inconsistencies may undermine dominant readings. Jacques Derrida introduced deconstruction and aimed to destabilize hierarchies in binary oppositions that privilege one term over another.
New historicism
Reconstructing Historicism is a literary theory that interprets literature through the historical context of both the author and the critic. It was introduced by Stephen Greenblatt in 1980 to study literature within the context of non-literary texts from the same time period. The theory emphasizes understanding power structures of the society surrounding a text in order to interpret it. New Historicism is related to cultural studies and emphasizes that individual experience is culturally specific rather than universal.

Derrida and Deconstruction
This document discusses Jacques Derrida and the concept of deconstruction. It notes that Derrida was an influential French philosopher best known for developing deconstruction. Deconstruction is a method of textual analysis that emphasizes exploring implicit assumptions and seeking meanings that run counter to intended interpretations. The document provides details on Derrida's works and influence, and gives an example of how T.P. Kailasam's play "The Purpose" employs deconstruction techniques to give a silenced character from the Mahabharata a voice.
Deconstruction Theory by Jacques Derrida
An analysis of the literary theory of Deconstructionism (Post-Structuralism) initiated by Jacques Derrida.
Theory of Deconstruction with Examples
This document provides an overview of the theory of deconstruction as developed by French philosopher Jacques Derrida. It discusses Derrida's influences including Martin Heidegger and Ferdinand de Saussure. Key concepts of deconstruction discussed include binary oppositions, logocentrism, and analyzing what a text omits in addition to what it includes. As an example, the document deconstructs the poem "Snow" by Frederick Seidel to explore symbolic meanings beyond what is directly stated.
New Historicism
1. The document discusses New Historicism, a literary theory that emerged in the 1980s in response to New Criticism.
2. New Historicism views history as a narrative shaped by subjective biases rather than objective facts, and believes literary texts should be understood within their social and cultural contexts rather than in isolation.
3. Prominent figures associated with New Historicism mentioned include Stephen Greenblatt and Hippolyte Adolphe Taine. New Historicism tends to examine popular works and marginalized groups to uncover neglected historical voices.

Criticism Vs Creativity
This presentation deals with the relationship between creative writings and critical writings; between the role of writer and critic.
Apollonianism and dionysianism
Friedrich Nietzsche analyzed Greek tragedy through the lens of Apollonian and Dionysian elements. The Apollonian represents reason, form, and individuality while the Dionysian represents intoxication, passion, and a loss of self. For Nietzsche, true Greek tragedy arose from a balance of these two elements, as seen in the works of Aeschylus and Sophocles. He believed later tragedians like Euripides lost this balance by emphasizing rationalism over ecstatic elements.
New historicism
This document provides information about a paper submitted by Umaba Gohil on the topic of New Historicism. New Historicism aims to understand literary works through their historical context and time/place of composition. It views culture as text and literature as reflecting and commenting on its sociocultural context. New Historicists study both canonical and non-canonical works and take an interdisciplinary approach, discussing politics, class and power in relation to literature.
Historiographical Metafiction
This document discusses historiographical metafiction and Linda Hutcheon's theories on postmodernism. It defines metafiction as fiction that draws attention to its fictional nature. Hutcheon is known for her work on postmodernism and metafiction. The essay examines how postmodern novels reject presenting the past based on present views and assert the specificity of past events. Historiographical metafiction questions the distinction between facts and events, and sees both history and fiction as subjective narratives. It utilizes techniques like multiple perspectives and parody to examine and question historical accounts.
theory of deconstruction
This document provides an overview of several key concepts in literary theory, including structuralism, post-structuralism, psychoanalytic theory, Lacanian theory, and the theory of deconstruction. It discusses major proponents of these theories such as Derrida, Foucault, Kristeva, and Lacan. Key aspects of deconstruction outlined include the literary and philosophical aspects, logocentrism, metaphysics of presence, différance, and arche-writing. Foucault's ideas around power/knowledge and different types of power are also summarized.
Eco Criticism, New Historicism and Diaspora paper - 07
Eco-criticism examines the relationship between literature and the physical environment, analyzing how nature is portrayed and its role in plots. New Historicism studies literary texts within both the author's and critic's historical contexts, acknowledging their influence. Diaspora literature emerged from populations scattered from their homelands, like Jewish communities outside Israel, maintaining attachments to origins and new locations.
Deconstruction ppt
This document discusses the concept of deconstruction. It outlines four conceptions of meaning - idealist, humanist, structuralist, and post-structuralist/deconstructionist. Deconstruction decentralizes meaning-making systems by exposing how they posit a privileged center or origin of meaning. It observes that all signifying systems operate through binary oppositions where one term is favored over the other. The goal of deconstruction is to dissolve these hierarchical oppositions and reveal the instability of truth claims based on the privileged terms.
Jacques Derrida
Jacques Derrida was a French philosopher associated with post-structuralism. He developed the concept of "différance", meaning that meaning is never fully present but always deferred to other meanings. Derrida also analyzed "violent hierarchies" in binary oppositions where one term dominates the other. He argued this dominance should be reversed through deconstruction. Derrida further believed interpretation has been part of human nature since Eden.
Post structuralism and Death of the Author
This document provides information about a poststructuralist criticism assignment submitted by Rohit Vyas. It includes biographical information about the student and defines some key aspects of poststructuralist criticism, noting that it displaced structuralism in prominence in the 1970s. It lists some important poststructuralist critics like Barthes, Lyotard, Baudrillard, and Foucault. It then summarizes Barthes' concept of "The Death of the Author", which argues that a text's meaning is not defined by the author's intentions and that the reader gives a text meaning.
Suspension of disbelief
The document discusses the concept of "suspension of disbelief" which refers to a reader's willingness to accept fantastical elements in a story. It was coined by Samuel Taylor Coleridge who said readers would suspend judgement of implausible narratives if the writer infused human interest and truth. In the 20th century, the phrase was used more loosely to imply it was the reader's responsibility. Coleridge introduced the concept to explain how modern audiences could enjoy stories involving the supernatural.
Deconstruction : A literary theory
Derrida introduced the theory of deconstruction in 1967, influenced by Heidegger's concept of "de-structuring" philosophical concepts to better understand them. Deconstruction holds that language is arbitrary and meanings are relational and constructed through context. It aims to uncover hidden assumptions and hierarchies in texts by analyzing contradictions and inconsistencies. Deconstruction was a reaction against structuralism and challenged philosophical traditions by expressing what had been marginalized or repressed. It looks for complexity rather than clear meaning or truth.
The Death of the Author
Roland Barthes was a French literary theorist who argued against traditional literary analysis that centered on the author's biography. He believed the meaning of a text comes from the reader rather than being determined by the author's intentions or life experiences. According to Barthes, a text is composed of references to other texts and cultures rather than being an original creation, and it has multiple meanings that cannot be fully deciphered or limited by identifying the author. He concluded that the reader, not the author, gives a text its unity and understanding, and that "the birth of the reader must be at the cost of the death of the Author."

New Historicism
This document provides an overview of New Historicism. It defines New Historicism as a method that reads literary and non-literary texts from the same time period in parallel to understand how events were interpreted and what those interpretations reveal about the interpreters. Key figures in New Historicism mentioned are Stephen Greenblatt, J.W. Lever, Jonathan Dollimore, and H.Aram Veeser. The document also discusses how New Historicism analyzes works like Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice in their original historical context.
Derrida Presentation 1
Derrida was a French philosopher who was influential in the development of post-structuralism. He argued that speech is not fundamentally different than writing and that language refers only to other signs in an endless chain of signification. Through deconstruction, Derrida sought to reveal the contradictory and unstable nature of concepts like truth, meaning, and authorship. He was critical of logocentrism, or the privileging of speech over writing and presence over absence. For Derrida, there is no escaping interpretation and every text simultaneously reveals and conceals meaning.
Feminism: Feminist Criticism: Elaine Showalter
This document summarizes Elaine Showalter's work and contributions to feminist literary criticism. It discusses her division of feminist criticism into the "Woman as Reader" and "Woman as Writer" frameworks. It also summarizes Showalter's concept of the three phases of feminist literature - the Feminine phase, the Feminist phase, and the Female phase. The document concludes by discussing Showalter's advocacy for approaching feminist criticism from a cultural perspective that acknowledges differences among women writers.
Psychoanalytic Criticism
Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) created psychoanalytic theory and psychotherapy. He believed unconscious sexual drives and dreams provided insight into human behavior. Freud analyzed the mind into conscious, preconscious, and unconscious parts. The unconscious consists of the id, ego, and superego. The id seeks pleasure, ego mediates reality, and superego acts as a conscience. Psychoanalytic criticism applies Freudian techniques to interpret texts and view characters as projections of the author's psyche, revealing unconscious desires, anxieties, and childhood traumas. It examines works for psychological conflicts and seeks to understand characters and relationships in psychological terms.
Hamartia
Hamartia refers to a character's fatal flaw or error of judgment that ultimately leads to their downfall, as described by Aristotle in his work Poetics. Aristotle defined hamartia as a mistake made by a character, often due to ignorance, that sets in motion tragic events. Examples of hamartia include Othello's jealousy and pride that Iago exploits, Macbeth's ambition that drives him to murder, and Oedipus' short temper that leads to hasty decisions causing his downfall. Hamartia is best understood as a mistake or wrong step taken in ignorance, rather than an inherent character flaw.
Psychoanalytic criticism
This document discusses psychoanalytic criticism, which applies psychoanalytic principles to the study of literature. It was initiated by Sigmund Freud. Key aspects are that the unconscious governs behavior and problematizes notions of self-knowledge. Main figures who contributed to psychoanalytic criticism are Sigmund Freud, who analyzed dreams and texts like Oedipus Rex, and Jacques Lacan, who reformulated Freud's ideas through linguistics.
Structuralism, post structuralism and deconstruction
Structuralism first emerged in the 19th century and was further developed in the 20th century by Ferdinand de Saussure. It approaches the analysis of narratives as cultural productions and views the structure and relationships within a text as more important than the writer or critic. Post-structuralism built upon these ideas, arguing that meaning is not fixed and that all elements within a text can act as signifiers for other elements, with no single interpretation holding authority.

Jacques Derrida was a 20th century French philosopher known for developing the concept of deconstruction. Deconstruction examines the assumptions and contradictions within texts. Derrida argued that meanings are not fixed and that there are many possible interpretations of a text. He also believed that a text contains absences and what is not said is as important as what is said. Derrida developed new concepts like "différance" and challenged the traditional privileging of speech over writing and presence over absence in philosophy.

Elements of Dystopian Science Fiction in David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas: Gener...English Literature and Language Review ELLR
The present research aims to study Mitchell (2004) Cloud Atlas from a narratological point of view for its generic hybridity which makes it a significant work of postmodern literature. David Stephen Mitchell (1969) is one of Britain’s foremost contemporary writers who won prominent literary prizes including 2004 and 2002 Man Booker Prize for Fiction. This research analyzes the novel’s narrative style and particular conventions which lead to a certain genre to investigate the implications and their relation to reality. It tries to unsettle the following questions: Are there any significant elements of dystopian science fiction in the novel? If yes, what are the political, philosophical, and moral implications of such categorization? To answer the questions narratological approach particularly genre criticism is applied to the novel. After the "Introduction", in the "Discussion" section, key words are introduced and defined; the elements of dystopian science fiction are searched for in the novel; and the implications of those elements will be discussed. In the "Conclusions" the genre and its ontological significance will be touched upon. This article shows that Cloud Atlas is a science fiction as it depicts a future advanced in technology, economy, health, transportation, and communication. Also the dystopian attitude is dominant because the pictured world has failed to consider societal and ethical issues and for its capitalism, genetic manipulation, and ignorance of and towards human and humanity. The ontology of the story has its own kind of reality whose characteristics can be generalized to the real world out of the novel. The issues fictionalized in the novel have roots in the present time problems of the world. It is concluded that the novel tries to warn people and the ontological solutions given to these problems are considered to be useful in the reality. Mitchell’s dystopian world in "An Orison of Sonmi-451" is not the hopeless end of everything. He thinks that there is a chance to save the world by reading about other societies and creating a balance between nature and science. Derrida’s post structuralism
Derrida developed the concept of deconstruction as a form of textual analysis. It focuses on how language and texts have multiple meanings due to differences in interpretation over time and space. Derrida argued that searching for a single fixed meaning in a text is misguided, as the unstable nature of signs and language means meanings are deferred and undecidable. His work challenged structuralism and emphasized how language constructs reality rather than reflects it. Deconstruction remains influential in literary theory by examining silences and absences in texts.
Destruction and Derrida
Deconstruction and Derrida focuses on analyzing texts to uncover conflicting meanings and undermine perceived truths. It examines how texts can be subverted by questioning assumptions around concepts like nature, reason, and identity. Derrida's concept of deconstruction aims to decenter traditional centers of meaning and show there is no single, fixed interpretation of a text. In conclusion, deconstruction seeks to dismantle rhetorical structures rather than destroy, shifting attention from authors to the free play of meanings within a work.
Intro to-literary-criticism
Literary criticism involves analyzing and interpreting works of literature. There are several approaches to literary criticism, including formalist, which focuses on elements like structure and symbolism within the text; biographical, which examines the influence of the author's life; and psychological, which applies theories like Freudian concepts to understand characters. Literary theory provides different lenses through which texts can be interpreted.
Elit 48 c class 7 post qhq
This document provides an agenda and information about applying New Criticism techniques to analyze literature. It begins with an agenda for the class that includes a lecture on New Criticism and a discussion of applying it to The Great Gatsby. It then provides an overview of New Criticism, describing it as a formalist approach that focuses only on elements within the text itself and aims to find a single, unified interpretation. Key aspects of New Criticism discussed include its use of paradox, irony, ambiguity, and tension to create complex meanings. Examples are given of each technique. The document concludes with typical questions New Critics ask themselves when analyzing a text and instructs students to read about Feminist Criticism for the next class.
The influence of Deconstruction in the Postmoderninsm Discourse.pptx
Jacques Derrida was the founder of deconstruction. He introduced the concept in three books published in 1967 and argued that language is fundamentally subjective since meaning depends on individual interpretations of signs. Deconstruction examines relationships between opposing concepts and aims to overturn hierarchical relationships and injustices. It views works of art not as harmonious fusions of meaning but as instances of conflict between different types of meanings. Derridean deconstruction also attempts to reconceive differences and pursue justice, though justice may be impossible to fully achieve.

The concept of imagination in biographia literaria
Coleridge's Biographia Literaria discusses his concepts of imagination and fancy. He divides the mind into two faculties: primary imagination, which is a creative power that mimics the divine principle of creation; and secondary imagination, which relies on the will to recreate primary imagination. Coleridge coined the term "esemplastic" to describe imagination's ability to shape multiple ideas into a unified whole. In contrast, fancy is a mechanical, passive faculty that accumulates facts but cannot create anything new. Coleridge viewed imagination as the primary creative force in writing.

Takashi Iba, Konomi Munakata, “Christopher Alexander’s Thought and Eastern Philosophy: Zen, Mindfulness and Egoless Creation with a Pattern Language”, PUARL 2018 conference, Portland, USA, Oct. 2018
We present that in order to realize “the process of creation of its own accord” put forward by Christopher Alexander, participation as ‘pure experience’ without thinking and analysis is necessary. This is a paradoxical but unique viewpoint; Alexander propose to create a ‘language’ (which is a tool for thinking) to share and follow spontaneous rules for generative process in Pure Experience. In this talk, we took up quotes of Christopher Alexander, Japanese Philosopher Kitaro Nishida, Ven. Ryodo Yamashita in Buddhism 3.0, and Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.

Structuralism and Poststructuralism.pptx
This presentation is having the very basic view for the movements that is Structuralism and Poststructuralism.
Uti index-papers-e-poststructuralism02
This document provides an overview of Jacques Derrida's philosophical concepts and their influences. It summarizes 12 key concepts:
1) Écriture and Pharmakon - Derrida analyzed the dual nature of writing as both medicine and poison based on Plato's Phaedrus.
2) Deconstruction - Derrida proposed that meaning is unstable and open to new interpretations, not determined by authorial intent.
3) Differance - Derrida's term for how meaning is deferred and produced through differences in language.
4) Key influences on Derrida's thinking included Marxism, Darwinism, and Freudianism. He drew parallels between their concepts
1607023995-post-structuralism.ppt
Post-structuralism emerged as a critical response to structuralism in 20th century French philosophy. It rejects the idea that meaning is fixed or that a text has a single, definable purpose. Post-structuralism emphasizes that meaning is dependent on the reader's own context and experiences. It views identity as complex and shifting rather than singular, and seeks to deconstruct assumptions and power structures through analyzing how meaning changes based on perspectives. The goal is a multifaceted interpretation of texts through considering many variables like culture, identity and knowledge systems.
Dialogical Odes by John Keats: Mythologically Revisited
This paper, using Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory of dialogism tries to investigate the indications of dialogic voice in Odes by John Keats. Indeed this study goes through the dialogic reading of ‘Ode to a Nightingale’, ‘Ode on a Grecian Urn’, ‘Ode to Psyche’, and ‘Ode on Melancholy’, considering mythological outlooks. Analyzing Keats’s odes through dialogical perspective may reveal that Keats plays a role of an involved and social poet of his own time. Moreover, Keats embraces the world of fancy and imagination to free himself from sufferings of his society. Keats’ odes are influenced by expression of pain-joy reality by which he builds up a dialogue with readers trying to display his own political and social engagement. Applying various kinds of mythological elements and figures within the odes may disclose Keats’s historical response and reaction toward a conflicted society and human grieves in general.
Post structuralism for slide
This document provides an overview of post-structuralism. It discusses how post-structuralism emerged in the 1960s and focuses on how language shapes thought and reality rather than serving as a transparent medium of communication. It discusses some key writers of post-structuralism like Roland Barthes, Jacques Lacan, Julia Kristeva and Michel Foucault. Some of the main ideas discussed are that the meaning of a text is interpreted by the reader rather than defined by the author, and that meaning is multifaceted rather than singular. It also discusses how post-structuralism views language and discourse as historically constructed rather than stable or universal.
Literary Criticism Notes.ppt
Literary criticism involves analyzing, interpreting, evaluating, and discussing literature. It examines elements like genre, structure, and value. Literary criticism aims to understand what literature is, what purpose it serves, and what value it possesses. It provides frameworks for interpreting works through considering aspects like historical context, social influences, and symbolic meanings embedded in the text. Different schools of criticism offer various lenses for revealing important aspects of literary works.
Introduction to literary criticism 2
This document provides an introduction to various approaches to literary criticism, including formalist, biographical, historical/cultural, psychological, mythological, gender, and deconstructionist criticism. It defines each approach and provides examples of how each could be applied to analyze specific literary works. The document is intended as an overview for students to understand different lenses through which texts can be analyzed and interpreted.

Sentences [autosaved]
This document defines and provides examples of different types of sentences. It explains that a sentence is the largest independent unit of grammar that expresses a complete idea. The four basic sentence structures are simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences. Sentences can also be classified functionally as declarative, imperative, interrogative, or exclamatory depending on the purpose. Declarative sentences make statements, imperative sentences give commands, interrogative sentences ask questions, and exclamatory sentences express strong emotions.
CLT "communicative language method"
Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) emerged in the 1970s as a result of experts realizing that students needed to develop communicative competence rather than just mastering linguistic structures. CLT aims to make communication the goal of language teaching by using authentic materials and meaningful, collaborative tasks. It focuses on using language as a means of communication rather than just studying structure. Key characteristics include using real contexts, providing opportunities to develop strategies, and practicing functional language. The teacher takes on roles like adviser and instructor, while students are active communicators responsible for their own learning. Techniques include role plays, problem-solving tasks, and using real-world materials like menus or newspaper articles.
Feminism in qisra sharaz ,s novel holy women
Feminism is a key theme in Qisra Shahraz's novel Holy Women. The novel addresses issues like the oppression of women in Pakistani culture through practices like arranged marriage, domestic seclusion, and traditions that deny women's rights. It presents a strong female protagonist, Zarri Bano, who asserts her individuality against societal expectations. The novel criticizes the patriarchal power of feudal lords and the cultural view of sons as superior to daughters in inheritance. It also highlights the importance of women's consent and rights in marriage.
character of boldwood in far from the madding crowd
Mr. Boldwood is depicted as a mild-mannered yet possessive farmer in his forties in Thomas Hardy's novel Far From the Madding Crowd. He becomes obsessed with Bathsheba Everdene after receiving a valentine letter from her, which disturbs his normally stable life. While he keeps his feelings reserved, Boldwood is deeply hurt when he sees Bathsheba with Troy and attempts to shoot Troy in a moment of passion before trying to kill himself. His character represents repression as his emotions possess him completely once awakened by Bathsheba's letter.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Deconstruction presentation
- 1. By Presented By Imran kakar Email; imrankakar205@gmail.com
- 2. Truth lies nowhere, rather it is individual’s interpretation……!!!
- 3. Literary theory and Criticism Literary criticism is the study, discussion, evaluation, and interpretation of literature. ( Wikipedia) "Literary criticism asks what literature is, what it does, and what it is worth.“ (Encyclopedia Britannica)
- 4. In a simple word , we can say…!!! Literary criticism is a lens.
- 5. Why do we analyze everything…???
- 6. Derrida’ French Theory First used “Deconstruction” in his book “Of Grammatology” 1967 (translated by Giyatri spviak ). Philosophical school… Deconstructive reading ... Leads us to experience of time.
- 7. Deconstructing “link between meaning and the word (logos). By logos means spoken word, whose meaning is attached to, identity of speaker or his presence. His main point , meaning of written form is not authority of a writer rather it is the birth of a reader….
- 8. Movement of Interpretation The interpretative movement of deconstruction challenges us to ask what a particular thing is not. Deconstruct denies the possibility of pure presence Interpretations help us to tell one thing from the other, to pose the question of what a particular thing is for itself (what is the meaning of this text?)
- 9. Binary opposition Oppositional pairs organize the society , male/female, public/private. Better way to understand text.
- 10. No logocentrism He rejected the notion of logocentrism. Meaning is universal or authorized by the writer and an author.
- 11. How can we deconstruct this poem? Snow By Frederick Seidel Snow is what it does. It falls and it stays and it goes. It melts and it is here somewhere. We all will get there. Source: Poetry (September 2012)
