Jacques Derrida (July 15, 1930 – October 9, 2004), was a Jewish Frenchman born in Algeria who popularised the term [[Deconstruction]]. Amusingly enough he was originally named "Jackie" after the famous actor Jackie Coogan, but changed it to the more proper Jacques when he moved to France. [[World War Two]] broke out when he was a boy in France he was kicked out of school (along with every other person of Jewish background) as per the orders of the Nazi puppet regime set up in France after their surrender. Instead of going to the schools for displaced Jews, Derrida skipped school for a while and actually got involved in soccer, hoping to turn pro. He took an interest in philosophy around this time, which took him down a very different career path. |
