Overview

"Gilles Deleuze has been labelled the ""post-x"" thinker: post-structuralist, post-modern, post-Spinozist, post-Nietzschean, and even post-utopian. This book explodes such categorizations and places Deleuze and Deleuzian method at the heart of contemporary thought. Whether analyzing the work of key philosophers, or key concepts such as time, difference and subjectivity, or the nature of creation (film, painting, literature), Deleuze's concern is always the same. From under the layers of history, criticism and interpretation, he aims to reveal the problem itself in its own life, as it develops in a particular thought or activity. This book focuses on the key processes and concepts essential to the understanding of the totality of the work, setting these within their intellectual background and context. It is designed for students across the humanities and social sciences."
