The Thing about Derrida

On page 27 of Of Grammatology (trans. Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins UP, 1976)), Derrida asks, "What can a science of writing begin to signify, if it is granted…that historicity itself it [sic] tied to the possibility of writing…?" That should be "is" — an obvious typo.

Or is it?
