Book, Kant's Critical Philosophy, A[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. Author of some of the most representative works of 20th century philosophy, Deleuze is, without a doubt, one of the most original thinkers of our era. He also dedicated himself intensely to the history of philosophy. He wrote books about Hume, Spinoza, Nietzsche and Bergson, in general, philosophers who lent him elements for his philosophy of immanence. Of all the philosophers he dedicated himself to, Kant is certainly the furthest from his own philosophical project. Read by Deleuze, Kant is an author “full of twists and turns”, capable of creating “fantastic concepts” and founding modern philosophy around a new conceptual character: no longer the investigator, but the judge. Fascinated but also horrified by Kant's philosophy, Deleuze wrote a rigorous and accessible work, which constitutes not only an excellent introduction to Kant's thought, but also to Deleuz's method of reading.
