Could you point me to this technical account in Limited Inc., Ben?
I was pawing around in that book recently. It is hard for me to
imagine Derrida giving what I would consider a _technical_
account of anything, for all his 'en toute rigueur'-ing, I must
admit.
I recommend the first 10 pages of Wittgenstein's Zettel as
having more to say about these issues than the entirety of
Limited Inc. (And the style there is anything but 'technical'.)
I wouldn't want to comment on the interesting Prynne quote
without seeing the whole piece.
