DERRIDA AND LACAN

 

Deconstruction demonstrates that in fact no finite system can be
isolated from other systems in which its elements partake. These
systems would for this reason be spatially understood as those which
‘surround’ it. And naturally, the same would apply to these systems,
and so on ad infinitum. The result would be that each element of a
textual system is defined by its differences from an infinite number of
elements, and thus by an infinite number of differences.
This infinity is beyond the comprehension of a finite consciousness,
and hence if the significance of any one signifier depended upon its
references to an infinite number of signifiers, then this significance
would be indeterminable for such finite intelligences
