Literature and Other Academic Books


Here are all of the academic books I am offering right now. All are softcover unless otherwise noted. I've included scans of all items as well as the price I'm asking. However, since books depreciate so quickly after they are purchased, I am willing to negotiate. So if you want to make an offer for something, don't hesitate to do so If you find something you want, send me some e-mail at Thracian@mailexcite.com and I'll tell you what the total amount for your order will be. Buyer pays with check or money order and also pays shipping and insurance (if insurance is desired).


Of Grammatology

Significant work by Jacques Derrida, translated by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak. This book would be useful to anyone involved in English graduate studies or anyone interested in philosophy or structuralism. The publisher writes, "Influential enough to have affected the entire French critical scene, Jacques Derrida has been hailed as the most important philosopher in France today. His ideas of reading and writing, his notion of de-construction, his reinterpretations of phenomenology, of psychoanalysis, and of structuralism have profoundly influenced the vanguard of European and American criticism and have occasioned lively controversy.
Book is in great condition--does have my name stamped on the inside cover, but white-out could be applied and it would be barely noticable.
Item Book7: $5

The Dialogic Imagination

This is another significant work for someone involved with or interested in English studies and the study of language. Voice Literary Supplement says of this work, "We are only now realizing, 20 years after the first English translation of his work, that Bakhtin is one of the giants of 20th century social and cultural theory." Essays are translated by Michael Holquist.
