What does Deleuze say to philosophy in the 21 st Century?
Trained in the history of philosophy, Deleuze wrote a series of monographs on canonical figures such as Hume, Leibniz, Spinoza, Kant and Nietzsche. Some were almost pedagogical texts, written for students; some were deliberately subversive, proposing strong interpretations at odds with the received view of the philosopher in question. His own idiosyncratic engagements with the tradition pointed towards a metaphysics of difference, a logic of sense, and an alternative to the ‘dogmatic image of thought’ that had long governed European philosophy. His work with Guattari led to an overtly political and outward-facing practice of philosophy that he defined as the invention of concepts that might be useful for intellectual activities such as cinema, visual art, science or literature as well as for philosophy itself. The result is a complex and varied body of work that cannot be reduced to a single idea, message or program. The aim of this special issue is to explore some of the ways in which Deleuze’s oeuvre might now contribute to the practice of philosophy.
