The preeminent witness to this \"multiplicity of voices\" is for Dionysius none other than Paul. But that divine intrusion and corresponding loss of the monological self that Paul suffers on the road to Damascus is what both Dionysius and Derrida seek to solicit through the practice of writing. Into his dialogical address (\"I would like to speak to you\") in a \"multiplicity of voices,\" Derrida invites the other to intrude: \"[D]on't hesitate to interrupt me.\" So too Dionysius, \"being neither [him]self nor someone else,\" invites the luminous intrusion of his divine addressee: \"Let us, then, call upon Jesus, the Light of the Father.\" 78 Derrida, in attempting to distinguish deconstruction from apophasis, famously takes issue with the fact that for Dionysius the addressee is predetermined, the other is thereby not given leave to be other, and thus negative theology fails to be sufficiently negative. 79 Despite this irreconcilable difference, Derrida succeeds in suggesting not only that an apophatic anthropology requires that one \"be more than one\"—that is: divide within oneself and speak in several voices—but also that this multiplication and division is effected by the practice of writing so as to invite interminably the interruption of the other.\" (Keller 2009:85)\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/allenwilson/De-rerum-scriptura/issues/comments/263625543","html_url":"https://github.com/allenwilson/De-rerum-scriptura/issues/26#issuecomment-263625543","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/allenwilson/De-rerum-scriptura/issues/26","id":263625543,"user":{"login":"allenwilson","id":9708359,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/9708359?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson","html_url":"https://github.com/allenwilson","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/allenwilson/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-11-29T16:44:19Z","updated_at":"2016-11-29T16:44:19Z","body":"\"The names which it assumes only render more palpable the resistance to the form of presence.
