Deleuze and Foucault had a long, complicated and productive relationship, in which each was at various times a significant influence on the other. This collection combines 3 original essays by Deleuze and Foucault, in which they respond to each other's work, with 16 critical essays by key contemporary scholars working in the field. The result is a sustained discussion and analysis of the various dimensions of this fascinating relationship, which clarifies the implications of their philosophical encounter.

Addressing the essential question of the relationship between ethics and aesthetics in Deleuze's philosophy this book provides clear indications of the practical implications of Deleuze's approach to the arts through detailed analyses of the ethical dimension of artistic activity in literature, music, and film. Bogue examines Deleuze's \"transverse way\" of interrelating the ethical and the aesthetic, the transverse way being both a mode of thought and a practice of living. Among the issues examined are those of the relationship of music to literature, the political vocation of the arts, violence in popular music, the ethics and aesthetics of education, the use of music and sound in film, the role of the visual in literary invention, the function of the arts in cross cultural interactions, and the future of Deleuzian analysis as a means of forming an open, reciprocally self-constituting, transcultural global culture.

Jean-Clet Martin offers an insightful reading of Deleuze, from the point of view of a student, a reader and a fellow philosopher with whom Deleuze himself corresponded about his work. The letter-preface that Deleuze provided for the original French publication of Variations testifies to the confidence that Deleuze had placed in him. Equally at home in Kant's critical philosophy, baroque art, the mathematics of the virtual and the Anglo-American novel, Martin delivers a philosophically rigorous and seductive literary-style reading of Deleuze's work which will serve the student and the Deleuze scholar equally well. This is the first translation of Martin's work in English and as such is essential reading for anyone dedicated to the study of Deleuze. Martin has provided a new postscript for the translation, which brings his text into the present and anticipates his new work that will rekindle the discussion on Deleuze's relationship to Hegel.

Although Gilles Deleuze is one of France's most celebrated twentieth-century philosophers, his theories of cinema have largely been ignored by American scholars. Film theorist D. N. Rodowick fills this gap by presenting the first comprehensive study, in any language, of Deleuze's work on film and images. Placing Deleuze's two books on cinema-The Movement-Image and The Time-Image-in the context of French cultural theory of the 1960s and 1970s, Rodowick examines the logic of Deleuze's theories and the relationship of these theories to his influential philosophy of difference. Rodowick illuminates the connections between Deleuze's writings on visual and scientific texts and describes the formal logic of his theory of images and signs. Revealing how Deleuzian views on film speak to the broader network of philosophical problems addressed in Deleuze's other books-including his influential work with Félix Guattari-Rodowick shows not only how Deleuze modifies the dominant traditions of film theory, but also how the study of cinema is central to the project of modern philosophy.

Explores how the Deleuzian event should be understood in terms of the broader metaphysical thesis that substances are ontologically secondary with respect to events through examining Deleuze's relation to the history of thought from the Stoics through to Simondon.

By tracing its connections to other concepts and situating them within Deleuze's general aesthetics, Ronald Bogue develops a theory of fabulation, which he proposes as the guiding principle of a Deleuzian approach to literary narrative. This is an original and exciting project by a highly respected specialist in the field.

The essays in this collection uncover and explore the ethical dimension of Deleuzian philosophy.

Having Gilles Deleuze's philosophy of difference as the triggering engine of thought, the present text aims to tension a little more on the idea of intervention commonly addressed in the professional modality post-graduation programmes. The study was guided by the following question: what can Deleuze's philosophical experience tense what is understood as intervention, in view of research in education? As a methodological procedure, we conducted a survey of research developed in postgraduate programmes of professional modality in education and teaching in Brazil, whose interventions are based on the philosophy of difference proposed by Deleuze. There were found six dissertations of professional master's degrees in education, mainly from the southeast region of Brazil, produced by authors who dared to seek an experimentation in research. Then, a brief essay of experimenting/intervening textually with/by some of the authors of these studies was carried out. It was concluded that the intervention research inspired by the philosophy of difference, specifically in Deleuze, distances itself from a dualistic intervention (subject/object) and can be thought as a procedure, from a territory of experimentations and compositions, as a plan of lines that weave an education in favour of a praise to life; it is an intervention that comprises a horizontal relationship between researcher(s) and participant(s), who mutually affect each other with the research, in an inventive, creative manner and highlighting multiplicities. Keywords: intervention; Deleuze; professional masters. Tendo como motor disparador de pensamento a filosofia da diferenca, de Gilles Deleuze, este texto tem por objetivo tensionar um pouco mais sobre a ideia de intervencao comumente abordada em programas de pos-graduacao na modalidade profissional. O estudo foi norteado pela seguinte questao: o que pode a experiencia filosofica de Deleuze tensionar aquilo que se entende por intervencao, tendo em vista a pesquisa em educacao? Como procedimento metodologico, realizou-se um levantamento de pesquisas desenvolvidas nos programas de pos-graduacao de modalidade profissional em educacao e ensino no Brasil, cujas intervencoes tem por base a filosofia da diferenca proposta por Deleuze. Foram localizadas seis dissertacoes de mestrados profissionais em educacao, principalmente da regiao sudeste do Brasil, produzidos por autores que ousaram buscar uma experimentacao no pesquisar. Em seguida, realizou-se um breve ensaio de experimentar/intervir textualmente com/por alguns dos autores desses estudos. Concluiuse que a pesquisa intervencao inspirada na filosofia da diferenca, especificamente em Deleuze, se distancia de uma intervencao dualista (sujeito/objeto) e pode ser pensada como um procedimento, a partir de um territorio de experimentacoes e composicoes, como um plano de linhas que tecem uma educacao em prol de um elogio a vida; trata-se de uma intervencao que compreende uma relacao horizontal entre pesquisador(es) e participante(s), que se afetam mutuamente com o pesquisar, de maneira inventiva, criativa e evidenciando multiplicidades. Palavras-chave: intervencao; Deleuze; mestrados profissionais. Teniendo como motor desencadenante del pensamiento la filosofia de la diferencia de Gilles Deleuze, el presente texto pretende tensar un poco mas la idea de intervencion comunmente abordada en los programas de postgrado de la modalidad profesional. El estudio se guio por la siguiente pregunta: ?que puede tensar la experiencia filosofica de Deleuze lo que se entiende por intervencion, de cara a la investigacion en educacion? Como procedimiento metodologico, realizamos un relevamiento de las investigaciones desarrolladas en los programas de posgrado de modalidad profesional en educacion y ensenanza en Brasil, cuyas intervenciones se basan en la filosofia de la diferencia propuesta por Deleuze. Se localizaron seis disertaciones de maestria profesional en educacion, principalmente de la region sudeste de Brasil, producidas por autores que se atrevieron a buscar una experimentacion en la investigacion. A continuacion, se realizo un breve ensayo de experimentacion/intervencion textual con/por algunos de los autores de estos estudios. Se concluyo que la investigacion de intervencion inspirada en la filosofia de la diferencia, especificamente en Deleuze, se aleja de una intervencion dualista (sujeto/objeto) y puede ser pensada como un procedimiento, desde un territorio de experimentaciones y composiciones, como un plan de lineas que tejen una educacion a favor de un elogio a la vida; es una intervencion que comprende una relacion horizontal entre investigador(es) y participante(s), que se afectan mutuamente con la investigacion, de manera inventiva, creativa y resaltando multiplicidades. Palabras clave: intervencion; Deleuze; masteres profesionales.
