Derrida holds, with Saussure, that language is a system of differences. this means that, a word gets its meaning by virtue of its differences from other words.

Derrida has called/named the language as arche-writing. As per which, a language is a type of writing that follows/consists of both speech and writing.

As Saussure described the term language as made up of a system of signs. And as per him there are only differences in language without a positive term.

It is so because Saussure use to look at structure as linear whereas, Derrida insists that all structures have some sort of center.

However, Derrida's concept was logocentrism. For which she said, the opposition/differences/argumentation between speech and writing is a manifestation of the logocentrism of Western culture.

The word 'mother' should be capitalised in place of someone's name. However, since you have already mentioned that she is called 'Sonya', the word 'mother' should not be capitalised.

How are Odysseus and Eurymachus similar?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

These two characters are not similar whatsoever. Eurymachus is a deceitful person, always scheming, thinking of plans how to enjoy himself and doesn't care about others. He even wanted to kill Odysseus' son Telemachus. He treats everyone with disrespect and is extremely arrogant. These are not adjectives that describe Odysseus, even though he did show arrogance when defeating the Cyclops.
