Book Description: In <i>Archive Fever</i>, Jacques Derrida deftly guides us through an extended meditation on remembrance, religion, time, and technology fruitfully occasioned by a deconstructive analysis of the notion of archiving. Intrigued by the evocative relationship between technologies of inscription and psychic processes, Derrida offers for the first time a major statement on the pervasive impact of electronic media, particularly e mail, which threaten to transform the entire public and private space of humanity. Plying this rich material with characteristic virtuosity, Derrida constructs a synergistic reading of archives and archiving, both provocative and compelling. <P>'Judaic mythos, Freudian psychoanalysis, and e mail all get fused into another staggeringly dense, brilliant slab of scholarship and suggestion.' <i>The Guardian</i> <P>' Derrida convincingly argues that, although the archive is a public entity, it nevertheless is the repository of the private and personal, including even intimate details.' <i>Choice</i>
