Derrida on memory & ghosts

10 Sep, 10 at 09:57am © 李智良

Ken McMullen, Ghost Dance (1983)

Derrida describes an ‘unnatural’ ghostly haunting whereby the dead are taken into us, but they are not internalized as they would be under more ‘normal’ circumstances (a psychoanalytic view of mourning) – he labels this as ‘terrifying.’


Derrida recounts his 1982 arrest in Czechoslavakia on trumped-up drug charges …

see also this clip in which Derrida plays ‘himself’ in the film and comments upon ghosts as they pertain to cinema and representation itself; the late Pascale Ogier (1958-1984) plays ‘Pascale’ who is questioning Derrida.
