Amazing. That he shares this with such vulnerability. Wonderful. Inspiring, really.

"Monsters of Abstraction", fuck he nailed it.

I love abstraction

i had the same experience as derrida

I can only imagine the horror as a child if someone'd said to me that my mother was somewhere in the building cooking food in a kitchen. My whole day would start revolving around that. It's actually a pretty clever response nonetheless.

It’s Derrida’s own interpretation of the sentence he received from this school employee about his mother cooking that made Derrida assume his mother was present at the school. This is very important. It is the play in the sentence derrida was told, not the employee that knowingly tells him a lie, that causes the mistake in interpretation and communication. This shows that even at a young age Derrida struggled with the same philosophical aporias and ambiguities he would later in life. Definitely check out some of Rousseau’s Emile

They weren't that close actually. Relationship soured further after Derrida wrote a deconstructive critique of one of Foucault's paper

I adore these interviews very much.

This kind of nailed it for me, I ought to read all Derrida.

I feel the EXACT same way. But in my case, I was 6 years old and started in a school, having just moved to the country. So essentially I was thrown into a class where I didn't understand the language. The mother-seperation can be hard enough, but not understanding a word anyone is saying I guess can be traumatic in itself. Yes, I had pretty much mastered the language (at the level a 6 year-old is meant to have mastered it) in 3-4 months, but that first tear into the soul never went away.

This is very touching.

Leave a thumb up if you cried at your first day of school too.

I cry the moment I think of school

Eu entendo a posição política sensível à exploração mental ao extremo. É estranha mesmo. Dói. Só que não é fácil entender a mente de um ser diferente de você. Não há controle. E o que pode-se fazer é por futuras gerações

Toujours charmeur ... là , surtout .

The most violently misunderstood and misappropriated because actually most important philosopher of the 20th century.

Why do you say that?

Hatzala. O Derrida é essencial. Guattari também. Chegaram à teoria da precisão de senciência animal por causa do holocausto contínuo.

I like institutions. But I don't like the people in it.

Little kids should be eased into school. But if you do that, you are attacked as being "permissive" because you don't ignore and crush your kid's feelings.

Imagine for a moment that this gentleman was in some French bistrot or other and was recounting you this whole story in a drunken slur, bent double over his table, one hand gripping his jug of pastis and the other dangling limply over the table edge. Is such an imagined scene not entirely apt for any postmodern philosophical monologue / dialogue?

Derrida needs to grow a set

Suck it up, Jacques, you can't stay attached to your mother's apron strings forever.

As long as being sensitive is seen like you happen to describe it here, that it seen as weakness one has to overgrown,... Idk, world is the way it is. And it's for me atleast, a bit ironic to judge a philosopher for not having balls, when he went there where no others did,... Again, idk. But, ofc the growing away from the mother, that I can actually agree, but not with this much of salt.
