An introduction to Jacques Derrida’s unpublished seminar Répondre du secret, that took place at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales in the years 1991-1992 and that is the first teaching lecture of the long series named “Questions of responsibility”. We will show how the philosopher proposes the deconstructive and aporetic idea of a “phenomenology of the secret”: a phenomenology that keeps the secret, in opposition to the violence of traditional philosophy and classical phenomenology that violate the secret in the name of a truth as pure presence. We will indicate at the same time the close connection between this secret, the responsibility and the deconstruction of metaphysics.
