The Non-Philosophy of Gilles DeleuzeThe Non-Philosophy of Gilles Deleuze

This text takes up Deleuze's most powerful argument on the task of contemporary philosophy in the West. Deleuze argues that it is only through a creative engagement with the forms of non-philosophy - notably modern art, literature and cinema - that philosophy can hope to restore the broken links of perception, language and emotion. In a sequence of essays, Gregg Lambert analyses Deleuze's investigations into the modern arts. Particular attention is paid to Deleuze's exploration of Liebniz in relation to modern painting and to Borges with regard to an understanding of the relationship between philosophy, literature and language.
