24. Lilla, 1998, pg. 40. This is interesting, because the precise wording used by Hicks does not appear in the Kaufman translation of “Spectres,” nor in the abridged version published in New Left Review. (Derrida, “Spectres of Marx” NLR Issue 205, May/June 1994a, pg. 56). In Kaufman’s translation “eyes” in the original French has been translated as “view”, but Lilla has kept eyes, so this may simply be his own translation, as he does not include a footnote for the quote, sensible since he provides attribution in the paragraph. This is why I am comfortable asserting that Hicks got the quote from Lilla, and not Derrida. And, to be sure, Hicks DOES cite Lilla, so the problem isn’t plagiarism, but deceptively citing a book you haven’t read.
*The first essay in Moscou alle retour, was published in English in 1993 (hence where the title's translation originates) but the 1995 book Lilla references and Hicks cites, was not.

71. There are several other texts (the supplementary sources I talked about earlier) which speak about postmodernism generally, but only Lyotard’s 1997 text is actually cited from. There are some texts which are specific critiques of postmodernism, notably Koertge 1998 and Friedrich 1999.
