Description
Gilles Deleuze's final piece of writing, Pure Immanence, brings together his essays on a central theme at the heart of his philosophy: the nature of a life. Newly translated and gathered in one volume, these essays capture Deleuze's ongoing search for a new and superior form of empiricism that rethinks the relationship between thought and life.
In this collection, Deleuze explores the idea of an "empiricist conversion" and its implications for his aesthetics and conception of the art of cinema. He argues that such a conversion is necessary in the face of the new regime of communication and information-machines, and that it is essential for the invention of a new kind of philosophy.
Deleuze's philosophy is characterized by its emphasis on the importance of the present moment and the need to think in terms of what is yet to come. Pure Immanence exposes the challenges and complexities of this approach, and offers a unique perspective on the nature of philosophy and its relationship to the world around us.
