This thinker defined freeplay as the “disruptions of presence” after an “‘event’” in a lecture which argued that “the (15[1])center is not the center.” This thinker called the minimal repeatability of experiences the “trace.” In a reading of the Phaedrus, this thinker discussed the (15[1])composite meanings of (*) “pharmakon”. John Searle ridiculed this thinker’s understanding of intentionality in their response to J. L. Austin’s theory of the illocutionary act. Gayatri Spivak translated this thinker’s assertion that “there is nothing outside the text” in a two-part book which discusses logocentrism in relation to Saussure and Rousseau’s theories of language.
