lol – I have to admit, part of me admires the audacity of excising this sentence – although I’m becoming mildly nervous about translation issues, simply because it’s just so… strange… This excision is, though, consistent with other aspects of the “spin” Derrida is placing on Marx’s work – and with the overarching argument he is making about interpretations as selective endorsements of parts of our inheritance. I’ll be trying to develop this into a more proper argument – whenever I can dig myself out from under the other commitments I’ve made… :-(
