The Origins of Speech

Derrida thinks that the first spoken words were in themselves a kind of writing, at least in the way that we imagine within logocentrism writing to be. The same can be said of speaking, even though linguists want to forget that. Derrida calls this a kind of archie writing or an archie writing, would be archie, I guess, that precedes logocentrist and actually sets the stage for it. Soor: Gramitology is using the logic of there being an origin, a kind of truth, a truth to this birth of this artificial distinction between speech and writing.
