Question

Derrida holds, with saussure, that language is a system of differences. this means that?

Answer 1

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.
