However, there may be nothing equal to what may be actually described as that ‘biography of a philosophy’ to be present in Edward
Baring’s The Young Derrida and French Philosophy, which meticulously tracks the younger Derrida’s turn from existentialism
in the direction of self-consciously scholastic readings of Husserl or the event of différance as manifest within the edits and rewrites of early papers
for publication in Writing and Differance. Baring’s ebook - itself
a product of much time served within the archive - will probably be reviewed by Andrew McGettigan in RP 178.)
So, whereas, for instance, Peeters notes in passing
Derrida’s 1964 award of the ‘prestigious’ Prix Cavaillès for his translation and
introduction of Husserl’s Origin of Geometry, nowhere does he
remark how apparently odd, from the angle of his subsequent repute, it ought
to be that Derrida’s first such recognition ought to have come in the
context of the philosophy of mathematics, nor what significance for
the ‘genesis of the principal works’ that were to return this might need.
