About This Book

"In Heidegger and Derrida on Philosophy and Metaphor, continental philosopher Giuseppe Stellardi focuses on the relationship between metaphor and philosophy through an exploration of three separately identifiable but strictly interconnected thematic directions: the theory of metaphor, the theory of philosophical discourse, and a close analysis of text by Martin Heidegger and Jacques Derrida for what they reveal about both metaphor and philosophical discourse.".

"Stellardi also includes a discussion of the fundamental debate on metaphor between Derrida and Paul Ricoeur and a detailed examination of philosophy as a "mode of discourse" among (and in relation to) others. The result is an idea of philosophy as essentially imperfect and self-destructive, and yet indispensable in the economy of the modes of discourse."--BOOK JACKET.
