Description

Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) is a key figure in poststructuralism, and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. The author proposes a radical way of understanding philosophy and art. He develops the concept further to present a way of practising philosophy based upon the fold as the relationship of difference with itself.

Author Biography

Gilles Deleuze was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VIII.

'A significant and needed contribution ... proposes a radically new conception of the notion of Baroque and, at the same time, is a new interpretation of Leibniz's work.' -- Reda Bensmana * Blurb from reviewer * 'A powerful and illuminating interpretation.' -- British Journal of Aesthetics * Blurb from reviewer *
