Eugenio Donato (1937–1983) was an Armenian-Italian deconstructionist, literary critic, and "philosophical critic". Raised in Egypt, and educated in France, he played an important role in teaching Americans how to read post-structural theory.

He edited, with Richard A. Macksey, the book The Structuralist Controversy: The Languages of Criticism and the Sciences of Man.

Donato died on September 19, 1983.^[1]
