Thinking activity on Derrida and Deconstruction



Here is my task or thinking activity on Derrida and Deconstruction as a part of my academic study. To open the task link click Here.





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





Ans : 


           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.


1) Drashyam movie : 



    In this film shows the binary oppositions of Power - Knowledge,  Middle class - High class , Family - Law, Morality - Immorality,   Man - Woman , Society - Family .

This film itself deconstruction the mentality that believes by police officer ( Tabu) that  illiterate person is never  smart or intelligent to  escape from his crime. But the later part of the movie  deconstructed this idea that  Vijay ( protagonist ) is too much intelligent beyond her thinking. He get knowledge from watching films. He saves his family from this crime.

           In this movie shows the conflict between power and knowledge or conflict between woman and man.As usually Man become superior by saving his family from crime.

        When the lady officer ( Tabu)  comes to know that her son making video of girl after knowing the reality about her son she never think  that her son has doing something wrong.she also never think twice about that girl who going through this difficult time  and as a women she should not be so cruel towards the girl. In this film also shows the mentality of society that women 's pride is so much important for family. When something goes wrong with girl society ultimately blame the girl and her family and never accept them. Because after knowing the reality people  blame the girl more than boy. In this film also shows this thing.This thing become  responsible for  girl to killing that boy.

     


2) Advertisement of Favikvik : Todo nahi Jodo:



 This advertise is about favikwik . In this advertise we can see the binary oppositions of India - Pakistan, Patrioticism - Humanity, Enemy - Humanity , To Breaking - To binding. This advertise telling the message of unity believe in binding not Breaking but it not focus on the boder between two nation this thing itself break this main theme of this advertisement that the nation already devided into two parts and that two solder represting that own nation.
