Description
French philosopher Gilles Deleuze is known for his ideas on creation and affirmation. In "Dark Deleuze", Andrew Culp challenges the prevailing interpretation of Deleuze's thought, uncovering a forgotten negativity that has been lost in the canon. Culp argues that concepts created to resist capitalism have been co-opted into business mantras, leading to a watering down of their original meaning. By recovering this negativity, Culp unsettles the dominant view and rekindles opposition to what is intolerable about our world. This book is part of Forerunners, a series of digital works that draw on scholarly work from various fields. Published in 2016, "Dark Deleuze" offers a thought-provoking exploration of Deleuze's philosophy and its relevance to contemporary issues.
