Derrida, Van Til and the Metaphysics of Postmodernism

Derrida, Van Til and the Metaphysics of Postmodernism

  • Technical
  • Jacob Gabriel Hale

Loking at the philosophy of Jacques Derrida and linking it to postmodernism, this article shows that the struggle of postmodernism is not that of epistemology, but that of ontology and metaphysics. The author discusses Derrida's struggle with phenomenology and logocentrism, and points to Van Til as the answer to Derrida's criticism. Knowledge and meaning can only make sense when grounded in God.
