Derrida’s performative reading of François Jacob’s account of DNA reproduction in The Logic of the Living focuses on Jacob’s interpretation of DNA as a logocentric text, one that is essentially without survival value. In line with other modern biologists, Jacob confuses metaphor and concept. He also looks forward to man’s “cerebral” (eugenic) control over evolution.

What Alexander Graham Bell considered his most important, if least known, invention, the ear phonautograph, was designed to “bring the deaf to speech.” This chapter links Derrida’s suggestion that invention has become production to Marx’s blurring of reproduction-production and to Bell’s eugenics initiatives designed to eliminate reproduction between deaf mutes who, like foreigners, suffered from “broken speech.”
亚历山大·格雷厄姆·贝尔(Alexander Graham Bell)认为他最重要的发明(虽然鲜为人知)是耳印机,它的设计目的是“让聋哑人学会说话”。本章将德里达关于发明已经成为生产的建议与马克思对再生产的模糊化以及贝尔的优生学倡议联系起来,该倡议旨在消除聋哑人之间的再生产,这些聋哑人就像外国人一样,遭受“言语破碎”的痛苦。

Derrida returns to the questions of academic freedom, teaching as auto-reproduction, and the biological-biographical body by considering Nietzsche’s Ecce Homo before turning to his earlier (1872) On the Future of our Educational Institutions. Central to this chapter is Derrida’s inheritance of Nietzsche’s autograph-signature.

Derrida, teaching at the time of this seminar as an agrégé-répetiteur at the ENS in Paris, suggests that François Jacob’s interpretation of the DNA reproductive program transfers easily to the philosophical institution where teaching, under the direction of state authorities, takes place as auto-reproduction. Derrida questions the fate of the body and of academic freedom in this context of teaching as mechanical reproduction of sameness.

The “normal (i.e., rational) man” ideal that fueled the eugenics movement has found its way into current (both religious and “non-speciesist”) ethics. The situation examined in this chapter is one in which a sovereign knower determines moral worth based on a “double-body” standard.
