The intensification of interest in Deleuze over the last decade
has coincided with the end of the linguistic paradigm in both
continental and analytic philosophy. Indeed, the division between
the two traditions appears to be closing and the philosophy of
Gilles Deleuze seems to be crucial to this convergence, as he is
both indebted to the phenomenological tradition at the same time as
he operates with concepts drawn from the sciences. Claire Colebrook
explores these ideas and offers a new and alternative assessment of
Deleuze's contribution to philosophy. She argues that while Deleuze
does draw upon sciences that explain the emergence of language, art
and philosophy, his own thought is distinguished by a discontinuist
thesis: systems may emerge from tendencies of life but always have
the capacity to operate without reference to their original aim.
Colebrook makes new claims regarding how Deleuze's philosophy might
be used to read contemporary art and thus offers an original and
crucial contribution to the Deleuzian debate.
