Deleuze
(sometimes with others): My notes and
commentaries
I was going to write a single commentary on
bits of the Deleuzian works that I found
interesting, but instead I am going to post
something more fragmented and at an earlier
stage -- notes on various topics that have
engaged me as I have read through the stuff. I
have avoided the effort of editing it
altogether, so the different sections sometimes
overlap -- eg Deleuze and women, Deleuze on
cultural politics etc. Some pieces have been
shaped as journal articles of various kinds (so
many thousand words, proof-read and properly
referenced etc), and some have even been
published, but others are really little more
than preliminary thoughts, linked to more
substantive notes on the various books.
A very short and
very basic introduction to the ontology via a
homely analogy
Deleuzian
ontology -- a plain person's guide (
another attempt to describe the ontology in
simple terms with references to longer
discussion via hyperlinks for the keen)
Why is Leibniz so important for Deleuze's
ontology? (and see the notes on folds) (and Does God do Origami?
-- very short)
Against
Poetic Readings of Deleuze, and "Readings of
the Actual Text" (especially of Thousand Plateaus)
Why Deleuzian
Scholars Should Read Proust
Deleuze
and Guattari on cultural politics
On
the body without organs (BWO)
Deleuze and feminist politics
Deleuze
and education (quite long sections
assembled from several failed papers)
Deleuze on
Nietzsche (or the apologetic nature of
general philosophy)
