Synopsis
With death looming, Jacques Derrida, the world's most famous philosopher, sat down with Jean Birnbaum of the French daily Le Monde. They revisited his life's work and his impending death in a long and moving final interview.
The Derrida found in this interview is open and engaging, reflecting on a long career challenging important tenets of European philosophy from Plato to Marx. The contemporary meaning of Derrida's work is also examined, including a discussion of his many political activities. The discussion also turns to the realities of Derrida's imminent death - including life with a fatal cancer. The interview stands as a touching final look at a long and distinguished career.
