Summary/Abstract: This paper examines Derrida’s turn to the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins and how such a turn may place Derrida within a catholic and Franciscan tradition. The Franciscan philosophers: Bonaventure, Scotus and Ockham became nominalists in order to safeguard each single individual from the power of totalization. Following the Franciscans, Hopkins was also inspired to find a new significance of singularity. The inscape for him bears the stamp of the divine. And Derrida re-writes Scotus’ doctrine of „this-ness“ into the formula, „to be is to be strange“.
