Badiou’s Deleuze

Jon Roffe

Badiou’s Deleuze presents the first thorough analysis of one of the most significant encounters in contemporary thought: Alain Badiou’s interpretation and rejection of the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. Badiou’s reading of Deleuze is largely laid out in his provocative book, Deleuze: The Clamor of Being. Badiou’s Deleuze presents a detailed examination of Badiou’s reading and argues that, while it fails to do justice to the Deleuzean project, it invites us to reconsider and reassess Deleuze’s power to address the ultimate concerns of philosophy. Badiou’s Deleuze analyses the differing metaphysics of two of the most influential recent continental philosophers, whose divergent views have helped shape much contemporary thought.
