Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deconstruction, it seems, is dead. Its death, according to Jeffrey T. Nealon, is commonly attributed either to suicide—a direct result of its own decline into a formalism it was supposed to remedy—or to murder at the hands of the New Historicists. Looking beyond its presumed demise, Nealon sees its insights as continuing to figure importantly in postmodernist critical debates.
