Zusammenfassung:If writing has been understood as a supplement to a primary orality and a full presence, such is also true of tools or instruments, similarly conceived as secondary and derivative, supplements of a living and generative nature. But what about other dangerous supplements? What about those tools, instruments, machines or engines of death and of destruction? What about weapons? They might appear more derivative still, farther accessories in a positive program, in the “history of the gramme,” or indeed of the chains, in its rapport to “the origin and the possibility of movement, of the machine, of the techné, of orientation in general.” Derrida's seminars on the death penalty show otherwise, reflecting back on his work as a whole. It becomes possible to demonstrate that in “the chains and the systems of traces,” Derrida placed weapons (means of destruction and of execution) in a more urgent proximity to thought.
