At the beginning of last year, I was involved briefly in a reading group at the University of Sussex, the topic of which was the writings of Jacques Derrida. I wrote, at that point, a computer program to generate nicely presented versions of my notes and hereby present the resulting notes because the domain they were hosted on is now set to expire and I have no interest in maintaining it further.
This site is designed to offer, under the terms of the GFDL, my notes on the writings of Jacques Derrida. It is a work in progress; indeed, only just begun. All notes are available in XHTML (Web), PDF (Adobe Reader) and ODT (OpenOffice) formats. The styling is deliberately sparse; the works here are functional.
Many thanks go to: Robin Bagon and Katie Reid for their insightful comments and discussions. The XHTML versions of the notes are created with the aid of a piece of software entitled, aptly, xhtmlnotes which I have written and which is released under the terms of the GPL.
