Jacques Derrida bibliography explained

The following is a bibliography of works by Jacques Derrida.

The precise chronology of Derrida's work is difficult to establish, as many of his books are not monographs but collections of essays that had been printed previously. Virtually all of his works were delivered in slightly different form as lectures and revised for publication. Some of his work was first collected in English, and additional content has been added to some collection with the appearance of English translations or later French editions.

* referenced in the Derrida entry.

** the English edition collects an alternate translation of the essay "Signature, Event, Context", which already appeared in Margins of Philosophy, with "Limited Inc., abc" and "Afterword: Toward an Ethics of Discussion," which had not been previously collected in any language. The latter essays were collected first in English, partially because the last of the two was written in response to a questions put in a letter from Gerald Graff.

*** the English edition collects previous and original translations, some of which are excerpts of larger works; the French subsequent edition is expanded, containing additional essays which appeared in the interim.
