دريدا و التراث القبالي

Abstract EN

This critical study seeks to highlight the influence and presence of the Jewish Mystical tradition, Kabbalah, in the work of the French Jewish philosopher Jacques Derrida.

The study initially tries to study the relationship between philosophy, literature, and theology.

Then, it provides a short biography of Derrida and a basic definition of the Kabbalah.

The paper critically discusses two important works, by Susan Handelman and Elliot Wolfson, on the influence and convergence of Kabbalah and Derrida’s work.

As a practical example the study shows the presence of Kabbalah in two passages from Derrida.
