  Gilles Deleuze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Deleuze's main philosophical project in his early works (i.e., those prior to his collaborations with Guattari) can be baldly summarized as a systematic inversion of the traditional metaphysical relationship between identity and difference.
Deleuze borrows the doctrine of ontological univocity from the medieval philosopher John Duns Scotus.
Deleuze claims that standards of value are internal or immanent: to live well is to fully express one's power, to go to the limits of one's potential, rather than to judge what exists by non-empirical, transcendent standards.

 Gilles Deleuze's Difference and Repetition
Gilles Deleuze’s Difference and Repetition (1968, translated 1994) introduces the importance of a philosophy of difference by describing how difference may be internal to the nature of every Idea and how every Idea may have multiple elements which may be differentiated.
Deleuze uses the term "signification" to refer to the relation between concepts and their objects in a given field of representation, while he uses the term "sense" to refer to the expressive content of a conceptual object which is not necessarily located in a representational field.
Deleuze argues that a natural blockage may be due to a discrete extension or finite comprehension of a concept, while an artificial blockage may be due to a logical limitation in the comprehension of a concept.

 Gilles Deleuze [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was born in the 17th arrondisment of Paris, a district that, excepting periods in his youth, he lived in for the whole of his life.
Deleuze thus provides a reading of Leibniz that strikes the reader as eccentric and certainly at odds with the traditional approach, and yet which holds to both the text (in all his historical studies, Deleuze cites quite exhaustively), and to the new direction that he is working in.
Deleuze's philosophical naturalism is thus critical, Spinozist and Nietzschean: it sets as the aim of philosophy the attack of all that belittles life: the sad passions of Spinoza, the passive and reactive forces of Nietzsche, and mythology, in Lucretian terms.

 20th WCP: Immanence and Deterritorialization: The Philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari
GILLES DELEUZE'S early philosophy is dominated by the project of attaining a kind of philosophy that can be characterized best by naming its very enemy: dialectics.
DELEUZE encounters SPINOZA through a semiological approach to his -Spinozas - theory of expression: The 'age of representation' (FOUCAULT) is defined by a representational relation between 'knowledge' and the 'world'.
In accordance with the Stoics and NIETZSCHE, DELEUZE pleads for a philosophy of the 'surface', which is neither transcended nor subtranscended by a signifier, a subject, or a god towards the level of meaning, nor toward a sublevel of the 'empirical' world.

 Gilles Deleuze
Gilles Deleuze, like Jacques Derrida, is a recent French philosopher and historian of philosophy whose name is associated with such movements as post-structuralism, post-modernism and deconstruction.
This de-mystification of language allows Deleuze to return to a direct, empirical intuition of the self, absolutely unmediated by language, and thus he is not concerned to derive the essence of the unconscious from or through its linguistic effects, as in both deconstruction and Lacanian psychoanalysis.
Deleuze died in pitiable circumstances in 1995, but the influence of his works has endured: both the work of the early Lyotard and that of the early to middle Derrida (particularly in the seminal essay Diffèrance, which quotes Nietzsche and Philosophy) have clearly been written under a more or less lengthy Deleuzean shadow.

 Gilles Deleuze (1925 - 1995)
Deleuze's desperate attempts to undermine the illusion of "the sadomasochistic entity" result in a virtually endless list of dualities, a polarization between sadism and masochism whose rigidity itself reeks of reductionism and over-simplification.
Deleuze creates a system on cinema as same as he analyzes clearly what is new and what is different from the past films in films of neo-realism or the new wave.
Deleuze died in 1995, this CD was released in 1996, as an hommage to Gilles.

 Gilles Deleuze's Bergsonian Film Project
Deleuze on the other hand, erected a two-volume Bergsonian philosophy of cinema toward the end of the century that stands as one of the most stimulating studies of time and cinema.
Deleuze describes five characteristics of the new time-image, which found their first expression in neo-realism: "...the dispersive situation, the deliberately weak links, the voyage form, the consciousness of clichés, [and] the condemnation of the plot" (Cinema 1, 210).
Deleuze continues, "In the city which is being demolished or rebuilt, neo-realism makes any-space-whatevers proliferate -urban cancer, undifferentiated fabrics, pieces of waste ground- which are opposed to the determined spaces of the old realism" (212).

 Charles J. Stivale -- A-F Summary of L'Abecedaire de Gilles Deleuze
Deleuze concludes by asking what relation one should or could have with an animal and speculates that it would be better to have an animal relation (not a human one) with an animal.
Deleuze says that writing means pushing the language, the syntax, all the way to a particular limit, a limit that can be a language of silence, or a language of music, or a language that's, for example, a painful wailing (cf.
Deleuze refers to someone recounting seeing a horse die in the street before the age of the automobile, and he translates this into the task of becoming a writer: Deleuze cites Dostoyevski, the dancer Nijinksi, Nietzsche, all of whom witnessed a horse dying in the street.

 X. Gilles Deleuze: Polyrhythmic Objectivity
Gilles Deleuze's 'polyrhythmic' approach to objectivity and its impact on the status of concepts as given in VI(b), above.
Deleuze wants language to be encountered as communication which codes and 'over-codes' desires, which territorializes and 'deterritorializes' power, and which spreads and 'organizes' in the patterns of rhizomes.
Deleuze continues that shift so far that for him 'conceptual' activity becomes completely transactional, absent of any reference to identity: unifying only in events' discharge as convergent potentials (and contexts' sufferance of the recurrence thereof); singularities punctual in the modality of a beat.

In them, Deleuze draws out what are to him the most important creations of these different philosophers through close careful readings of their works.
So clearly Deleuze is making something up, making up a scarcely recognizable image of some of these thinkers, but he seems to manage to do so by staying very, very close to their texts.

 Gilles Deleuze Symposium: Participants   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Deleuze insists on the separate vocations of philosophy and the arts, but in Cinema 2 he suggests a more intimate relationship between philosophy and cinema, and perhaps it is in the domain of this immanent ethics that cinema serves a privileged function for philosophical thought.
Deleuze is also speaking of the cinematic or virtual worlds created in this period, signalling their radical difference in construction and operation from the cinema that preceded this moment.
In Deleuze’s account of film’s relation to philosophy, there is no opposition to the conception of images and knowledge organized on a plane of immanence and no objection to the disappearance of any conception of interiority.

 Amazon.com: Nietzsche and Philosophy: Books: Gilles Deleuze,Hugh Tomlinson   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Reading NIETZSCHE AND PHILOSOPHY by Gilles Deleuze in an English translation by Hugh Tomlinson, with a new Preface by Deleuze written for the translation in 1983 of a work originally published in French in 1962, serves as a reminder of the limits imposed on thoughts which are expressed within a scholarly milieu.
Deleuze can be given credit for devoting much of his book to the philosophical context in which each philosopher has a unique self occupying a particular point in the grand sweep of ideas, but Deleuze and Nietzsche might not coincide in their views on particular individuals.
Deleuze's methodology is poor; he quotes selectively, and relies too much on the posthumous notes published by Nietzsche's sister, ignoring those that explicitly refute his claims.

 Jacques Derrida - I'll have to wander all alone
(Deleuze had accepted the idea of publishing, one day, a long improvised conversation between us on this subject and then we had to wait, to wait too long.) I only know that these differences left room for nothing but friendship between us.
But, it's true, (he said it), Deleuze was, of all those in his "generation," the one who "did/made" (faisait) it the most gaily, the most innocently.
I will continue to begin again to read Gilles Deleuze in order to learn, and I'll have to wander all alone in this long conversation that we were supposed to have together.

 On Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus - International Philosophy - Cleaves Publishing
In radical contrast to the present drifting about, the Thousand Plateaus reinvent the sciences of spirit10 (it being understood that, in the tradition in which Deleuze and Guattari are located, "Geist" is the brain), by renewing the point of view of historicity, in its ontological and constitutive dimension.
Haecceity, defined by the early Deleuze as the fundamental problem- atic term of the history of philosophy, is originarily active and deploys itself according to the dimensions of movement, through a light-beam of desires or machinic elements.
