I greatly benefitted in preparing this course from LEONARD LAWLOR's generosity in letting me see his notes from a series of Derrida - Husserl courses he taught throughout the 1990s at the University of Memphis. Lawlor's book Derrida and Husserl: The Basic Problem of Phenomenology will be published in June 2002 by Indiana University Press. Click here to order the book from amazon.com.
