Beckett, Derrida and Deleuze evoke elements of traditional narrative and of the self in order ultimately to problematize any beliefs one might have about narrative and about the writing/written subject. From their work, one learns that the self is capable of producing text, but it is in turn subject to being produced by text, even, in the end, reduced to nothing more than text itself. "Of Grammatology" is Derrida's major work on the history and status of writing in Western civilization. It is here that he challenges the long held speech/writing power structure. Though many scholars have noted Beckett's continual allusions to Descartes's method of forming the subject through the employment of systematic doubt, the results Beckett's characters get after using this method are dramatically different from those of Descartes. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Literary Criticism src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of Modern Literature is the property of Indiana University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
