“其它”是解構主義中的主題之一。它是指一種不可理解的事物，因此“其它”也成了“混渾”，“無限”等字的同義字。正因為“其它”是不可理解的，德瑞達在他的解構理論中必需運用種種技巧來暗示“其它”的存在。德瑞達一方面運用各種技巧以指出各種理論的局限性。另一方面，德瑞達也利用一些有限的模型來呈現無限的混渾。這篇論文討論的是《印度之旅》中的“其它”。但本文並不是以解構主義來解釋這本小說，而是把《印度之旅》當做一本小說版的解構主義來討論。在討論這本小說中所包含的理論的同時，也希望能展現用一些固定理論來解釋作品的不當。 / The Other is a maJor subJect in Derrida's theory of deconstruction. The Other stands for something incomprehensible. It is therefore identical to chaos or infinity. Since the Other is incomprehensible, Derrida in his theory of deconstruction has to employ various tricks to indicate its existence. Derrida uses certain tricks to point out the self-contradictory elements in various theories to demonstrate their limitations. Since those theories are limited, they fail to comprehend the Other. Derrida also uses some tricks to demonstrate the existence of the infinite other with a finite model. 　　This thesis is about the Other in A Passage to India. But this thesis does not intend to apply the theory of deconstruction in order to get an interpretation of it. Instead, this thesis tries to discuss this novel as a narrative version of Derrida's theory of the Other. By pointing out the similarities between the theory implied in this novel and Derrida's theory, this thesis also hopes to demonstrate that a literary work is not always a prey for the predatory critic.
