Descrizione Gilles Deleuze's Transcendental Empiricism
'Marc Rölli offers not merely a foundational and original account of the work of Gilles Deleuze. With his reconstruction of Deleuze's "transcendental empiricism", he continues - with and beyond Deleuze - one of the grandest adventures in recent philosophy: establishing the source, the power and the radicality of thinking pure immanence.' Joseph Vogl, Humboldt-University, Berlin; Princeton University Deleuze's philosophy is reconstructed as an empiricist theory Deleuze's readings of Hume, but also of Spinoza, Bergson and Nietzsche, respond to philosophical critiques of classical and modern empiricism. However, Deleuze's arguments against those critiques - by Kant, Hegel, Husserl and Heidegger - consolidate the philosophy of immanence that can be called 'transcendental empiricism'. Marc Rölli offers us a detailed examination of Gilles Deleuze's philosophy. He demonstrates that Deleuze takes up and radicalises the empiricist school of thought developing a systematic alternative to the mainstreams of modern continental philosophy. Marc Rölli is Professor of Philosophy at the Leipzig Academy of Fine Arts, Germany. Peter Hertz-Ohmes is Professor Emeritus of German and Humanities at SUNY Oswego.
