The Principles of Deleuzian Philosophy by Koichiro Kokubun, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Re-reads Deleuze's whole body of work, reassessing his philosophical genealogy, influences and political potential. What gives us the right to speak of a Deleuzian philosophy, a philosophy at first sight concerned solely with interpreting other philosophers and writers? Koichiro Kokubun focuses on Deleuze's method of "free indirect discourse" to locate and explicate Deleuze's philosophy of transcendentalempiricism and its constitutive limits. Working through Deleuze's confrontations with Hume, Kant, Bergson, Freud, Lacan, Foucault, and Guattari, Kokubun uncovers a philosophy strongly influenced by structuralism and psychoanalysis, which had to overtake these movements because of its practical ambitions. Kokubun concludes with a radicalrevitalisation of the political potential of this philosophy. | The Principles of Deleuzian Philosophy by Koichiro Kokubun, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
