Derrida’s “Signature, event, context” ends with Derrida’s signature. He signs with an im/pure signature, a paraph and a re-mark.

What’s important in this argument about communication and signatures?

Derrida has argued that communication is always subject to iterability, citation and grafting. If so, it can’t be taken as a guaranteed, masterable passage of meanings. Language, Derrida says, is a “non-masterable dissemination”.

If that’s the case, we lose absolute assurance that we can “say what we mean” or “know what someone is thinking”.
