Who is derrida?
Jacques Derrida (1930–2004) was the founder of “deconstruction,” a way of criticizing not only both literary and philosophical texts but also political institutions. Although Derrida at times expressed regret concerning the fate of the word “deconstruction,” its popularity indicates the wide-ranging influence of his thought, in philosophy, in literary criticism and theory, in art and, in particular, architectural theory, and in political theory.

Yale school of deconstruction
In this Yale school of deconstruction there are 4 critics
Paul de man
J.Hills Miller
Harold Bloom
Geoffrey Hartman
These people made deconstruction very popular in America
In this school they were looking literature as per rhetorical and figurative meaning, but figurative language make the meaning problematic. So these four critics are showed that literature has multiple meaning of one word.
Deconstruction theory is difficult for aesthics as well as historians
Preoccupation with romanticism
Metaphor is being more objective in romanticism but as per Paul de man it is not metaphor but allegory is more important in romanticism
