It culminates with a poignant piece by Jacques Derrida, who reflects on Miller's interpretations of Gerard Manley Hopkins, highlighting a significant dialogue between French philosophy and American literary analysis. This intersection not only honors Miller's legacy but also deepens the understanding of literary criticism's impact across cultures.
