Derrida, Literature and War: Absence and the Chance of Meeting
This is a fascinating examination of the relation between absence and chance in Derrida's work and through that a re-examination of the relation between war and literature.

Sean Gaston starts by marking Derrida's attempts to resist the philosophical tradition of calculating on absence as an assured resource, while insisting on the (mis)chances of the chance encounter.
