This booklet examines a few of the encounters among Jean-Luc Marion and Jacques Derrida on “the gift,” considers their many ameliorations on “desire,” and demonstrates how those themes carry the keys to a couple of phenomenology’s so much urgent structural questions, specifically concerning “deconstructive” ways in the box. The booklet claims that the subject of hope is a imperative lynchpin to knowing the 2 thinkers’ clash over the present, for the reward is reducible to the “desire to give,” which initiates a flip to the subject of “generosity.” To what measure may perhaps loving additionally suggest giving? How a long way may well or not it's recommended that love is reducible to wish and intentionality? it really is confirmed how Derrida (the generative “father” of deconstruction) rejects the potential for any strength relation among the present and wish at the account that hope is sure to calculative repetition, low-cost appropriation, and subject-centered pursuits that prevent deconstruction. while Marion (a consultant of the phenomenological culture) calls for a different union among the reward and wish, that are either represented in his “reduction to givenness” and “erotic reduction.”

The publication is the 1st broad try to contextualize the stark transformations among Marion and Derrida in the phenomenological legacy (Husserl, Heidegger, Kant), offers readers with in-depth bills of the subjects of the reward, love, and hope, and demonstrates one other skill during which the showing of phenomena will be understood, particularly, in response to the generosity of things.
