DELEUZE GILLES

Ο ΜΠΕΡΞΟΝΙΣΜΟΣ
Με αφορμή τη συμπλήρωση εκατόν πενήντα χρόνων από τη γέννηση του Ανρί Μπερξόν (1859-1941), το ενδιαφερόμενο για τη φιλοσοφία αναγνωστικό κοινό της χώρας μας διαθέτει πλέον, με την ανά χείρας μετάφραση, μια από τις σημαντικότερες μελέτες που έχουν γραφτεί για τον γάλλο φιλόσοφο. Κατά κοινή ομολογία, "Ο μπερξονισμός" του Ζιλ Ντελέζ (1925-1995) συνέβαλε καθοριστικά στην "έξοδο του Μπερξόν από το Καθαρτήριο" στο οποίο βρισκόταν επί δεκαετίες - σύμφωνα με τη διατύπωση του Εμμανουέλ Λεβινάς (1905-1995), μετά την ισχυρή επίδραση που άσκησε το έργ...

ΓΙΑ ΤΟΝ ΚΑΠΙΤΑΛΙΣΜΟ ΚΑΙ ΤΗΝ ΕΠΙΘΥΜΙΑ
Δημοσιεύουμε εδώ μια συνέντευξη των Ντελέζ-Γκουαταρί, από τις πολλές που ακολούθησαν την έκδοση του βιβλίου τους Ο Αντι-Οιδίπους, που βγήκε για πρώτη φορά στη Γαλλία το 1972, προκάλεσε μια πολύ έντονη συζήτηση, η οποία επεκτάθηκε και στις άλλες ευρωπαϊκές χώρες που κυκλοφόρησε αργότερα. Όπως στο βιβλίο τους, έτσι και στην παρούσα συνέντευξη οι συγγραφείς δεν περιορίζονται σε μια κριτική στην ψυχανάλυση, τον φροϋδο-μαρξισμό, τον λακανισμό και κάποιες άλλες τάσεις της αντιψυχιατρικής, αλλά προχωρούν και σε μια άκρως πρωτότυπη ανάλυση και κρι...

(P/B) DIFFERENCE AND REPETITION
Difference and Repetition was first published in 1968. It was Deleuze's principal thesis for the Doctoral D' Etat. Expressionism in Philosophy: Spinoza, published in the same year, was his accompanying secondary thesis. The logic of Sense (Athlone, 1990) appeared the following year. This interrelated body of writing marks the border between two phases of Deleuze's career: one side facing the earlier texts of an unorthodox historian of philosophy, the other facing his subsequent work, alone and with Guattari. If the study of Spinoza is the ...

(P/B) MASOCHISM
In his stunning essay, Coldness and Cruelty, Gilles Deleuze provides a rigorous and informed philosophical examination of the work of the late 19th-century German novelist Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. Deleuze's essay, certainly the most profound study yet produced on the relations between sadism and masochism, seeks to develop and explain Masoch's "peculiar way of 'desexualizing' love while at the same time sexualizing the entire history of humanity." He shows that masochism is something far more subtle and complex than the enjoyment of pain...

(P/B) KANT'S CRITICAL PHILOSOPHY
Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VII. He is a key figure in poststructuralism and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Kant's Critical Philosophy is an outstanding example of Deleuze's work and one of the best short introductions to Kant available. The book lays emphasis on Kant's own view of philosophy. Where most discussions of Kant's work concentrate on the Critique of Pure Reason and the moral philosophy, Deleuze gives a broad overview of the whole of the Cr...

(P/B) ANTI-OEDIPUS
"A major philosophical work by perhaps the most brilliant philosophical mind at work in France today." --Fredric Jameson Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VIII. He was a key figure in poststructuralism, and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Fe'lix Guattari (1930-1992) was a psychoanalyst at the la Borde Clinic, as well as being a major social theorist and radical activist. Anti-Oedipus is part of Deleuze and Guattari’s landmark philosophical project, Capitalis...

A Thousand Plateaus ...

(P/B) CINEMA 2
Cinema 2 completes the major reassessment of cinema Deleuze began in Cinema 1. Drawing on the philosophy of Henri Bergson, this volume offers a fascinating analysis of the representation of time in film and the cinematic treatment of memory, thought and speech. (from the publisher)...

Η ΦΙΛΟΣΟΦΙΑ ΤΟΥ NOIR
". . .Η καινοτομία ως καρπός της λογοτεχνίας, έγκειτο κυρίως στο να μας διδάξει ότι η αστυνομική δραστηριότητα δεν έχει καμία σχέση με μια μεταφυσική ή επιστημονική αναζήτηση της αλήθειας. Το εργαστήριο της αστυνομίας δεν προσομοιάζει στην επιστήμη περισσότερο απ' όσο τα τηλεφωνήματα των πληροφοριοδοτών, οι αναφορές της χωροφυλακής ή τα βασανιστήρια δεν προσομοιάζουν σε μια μεταφυσική συζήτηση. Ως γενικός κανόνας διακρίνονται δύο περιπτώσεις: η επαγγελματική δολοφονία, για την οποία η αστυνομία γνωρίζει πολύ γρήγορα, λίγο πολύ, ποιος είναι...

(P/B) NIETZSCHE AND PHILOSOPHY
Nietzsche and Philosophy has long been recognized as one of the most important accounts of Nietzsche's philosophy, acclaimed for its rare combination of scholarly rigour and imaginative interpretation. Yet this is more than a major work on Nietzsche; The book opened a whole new avenue in post-war thought. Here, Deleuze shows how Nietzsche began a new way of thinking which breaks with the dialectic as a method and escapes the confines of philosophy itself. (from the publisher)...

ΚΑΠΙΤΑΛΙΣΜΟΣ ΚΑΙ ΣΧΙΖΟΦΡΕΝΕΙΑ

(P/B) NOMADOLOGY
In this daring essay inspired by Nietzsche, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari redefine the relation between the state and its war machine. Far from being a part of the state, warriers (the army) are nomads who always come from the outside and keep threatening the authority of the state. In the same vein, nomadic science keeps infiltrating royal science, undermining its axioms and principles. Nomadology is a speedy, pocket-sized treatise that refuses to be pinned down. Theorizing a dynamic relationship between sedentary power and "schizophr...

ΕΜΠΕΙΡΙΣΜΟΣ ΚΑΙ ΥΠΟΚΕΙΜΕΝΙΚΟΤΗΤΑ

(P/B) DIALOGUES II
In Dialogues II Deleuze examines his philosophical pluralism in a series of discussions with Claire Parnet. Conversational in tone, this is the most personable and accessible of all Deleuze's writings, in which he describes his own philosophical background, relationships and development, and some of the central themes of his work. This second edition includes a new essay, 'The Actual and the Virtual'. (From the publisher)...

(P/B) ON THE LINE
"A rhizome may be broken, shattered at a given spot, but it will start up again on one of its old lines, or on new lines. You can never get rid of ants because they form an animal rhizome that can rebound time and again after most of it has been destroyed... There is a rupture in the rhizome whenever segmentary lines explode into a line of flight, but the line of flight is part of the rhizome. That is why one can never posit a dualism or a dichotomy, even in the rudimentary form of the good and the bad. You may make a rupture, draw a line ...

(P/B) ESSAYS CRITICAL AND CLINICAL
"Authors, if they are great, are more like doctors than patients: they are themselves astonishing diagnosticians or symptomatologists." So wrote the philosopher Gilles Deleuze, setting himself the task of demonstrating the connections between literature and medicine. The essays collected here testify to Deleuze's fundamental conviction that philosophy cannot be undertaken independently of science and art. As so often in his writing, the names of philosophers such as Plato, Spinoza, Kant, Nietzsche and Heidegger appear beside those of liter...
