This recent thread on beauty and subjectivity keeps making me think of  
Derrida's "Tympanum" (sp?  I'm too lazy to look it up, and I pulled a  muscle 
in my 
neck -- dunno how that happens) from Margins .....  one reason  I mentioned 
him.

By "they" I meant the whole troupe of German  Idealists. I actually  
really like Heidegger, but for whatever reason I  never did develop any  
serious interest in his work (like I have with  those from Kant up to  
and including Schopenhauer).  I've read a  fair bit of Derrida, i.e. of  
Grammatology, Writing and Difference,  Margins of Philosophy, Rogues,  
but I can't say I'm particularly fond  of the deconstructionist  
program.  It seems to me like a somewhat  cheap Hegelianism.  I did  
like the second essay on reason in  Rogues. I read something by Lacan  
once, though I can't remember what.  I recall not being able to make  
heads or tails of  it.
