Thinking activity on Derrida and Deconstruction


1. What do you understand by 'Deconstruction'? (Remember: if you think you understand Deconstruction, you don't). 



         The term itself very difficult to understand because there is not any definition given by Derrida . As we use to understand the thing from definition and it becomes easy way for us to understand and this thing make this term difficult to understand.
   

     " Deconstruction is not destructive activity but inquiry into the foundation and causes of intellectual system. " 

       
    Derrida strongly believe that to define something is to make to boundaries around it. Deconstruction can be taken as a  process of inquiring the origin amd consrtuction of the text. Deconstruction do not destroy of any text but its questions it . So one can get to the idea of existence of the text .

   Deconstruction is not word and not belive in dictionary meaning as dictionary gives only another word or we can say it decentralised only another word for one word or we we can say it decentralised from center.  


2) Read an ad or TV serial or Film or literary text as post-structuralist critic. Be brief, precise and to the point. 






         This advertisement is about comfort liquid. In this we can see that mother say that " sirf shruti hi kyu tum bhi sikhoge" by this lines she shown equality of girls and boy so its good message for society but it not focus that lines there mother ask for help from her little son. This line show power of man so this thing itself break main theme ( message ) of advertisement that man and women are equal.
