Publisher: Motilal Banarsidass Publishe

This is the first critical introduction to Difference and Repetition, Gilles Deleuze s most important work of philosophy and one of the most significant texts of contemporary philosophy. In offering a critical analysis of Deleuze s methods, principles and arguments, the book enables readers to engage with the revolutionary core of Deleuze s philosophy and take up favourable or critical positions with respect to its most innovative and controversial ideas. The book will also help to extend Deleuze s work to philosophers working in the analytic tradition.
Difference and Repetition
Since its publication in 1968, "Difference and Repetition", an exposition of the critique of identity, has come to be considered a contemporary classic in philosophy and one of Deleuze's most important works. The text follows the development of two central concepts, those of pure difference and complex repetition. It shows how the two concepts are related, difference implying divergence and decentring, repetition being associated with displacement and disguising. The work moves deftly between Hegel, Kierkegaard, Freud, Althusser and Nietzsche to establish a fundamental critique of Western metaphysics, and has been a central text in initiating the shift in French thought - away from Hegel and Marx, towards Nietzsche and Freud.
