Persons and things

Johnson, Barbara, 1947-2008
Books
Deconstruction calls attention to gaps and reveals that their claims upon us are fradulent. Barbara Johnson revolutionises the method by showing that the inanimate thing exposed as a delusion (Barbie dolls, Keats's urn) is central to fantasy life, and that fantasy life, however deluded, should be taken seriously.
