{"product_id":"expressionism-in-philosophy-spinoza","title":"Expressionism in Philosophy: Spinoza","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this remarkable work, Gilles Deleuze, the renowned French philosopher, reflects on one of the thinkers of the past who most influenced his own sweeping reconfiguration of the tasks of philosophy. For Deleuze, Spinoza, along with Nietzsche and Lucretius, conceived of philosophy as an enterprise of liberation and radical demystification. He locates in Spinoza \"a set of affects, a kinetic determination, an impulse\" and makes Spinoza into \"an encounter, a passion.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eExpressionism in Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e was the culmination of a series of monographic studies by Deleuze (on Hume, Bergson, Nietzsche, Proust, Kant, and Sacher-Masoch) and prepared the transition from these abstract treatments of historical schemes of experience to the nomadology of \u003ci\u003eCapitalism and Schizophrenia\u003c\/i\u003e (\u003ci\u003eAnti-Oedipus\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA Thousand Plateaus\u003c\/i\u003e, co-authored with Félix Guattari). Thus, \u003ci\u003eExpressionism in Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e is both a pivotal reading of Spinoza's work and a crucial text within the development of Deleuze's thought.","brand":"Martin Joughin, Gilles Deleuze","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46348223217900,"sku":"9780942299519","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9780942299519.jpg?v=1744116396","url":"https:\/\/allstora.com\/products\/expressionism-in-philosophy-spinoza","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
