In this work, Deleuze proposes a new and radical conception of the baroque, relating this to a fresh interpretation of Leibnitz. This book embodies an original way of understanding major intellectual and artistic movements, using the baroque as a theoretical tool to analyze contemporary works of art and so-called modern condition. It is aimed at students of philosophy, aesthetics, art history and literature. Deleuze’s other publications include Nietzche and Philosophy , Kant’s Critical Philosophy , Cinema I , Cinema II and Logic of Sense .
