The Logic of Expression
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-27777-9 (ISBN)
Engaging with the challenging and controversial reading of Spinoza presented by Gilles Deleuze in Expressionism in Philosophy (1968), this book focuses on Deleuze's redeployment of Spinozist concepts within the context of his own philosophical project of constructing a philosophy of difference as an alternative to the Hegelian dialectical philosophy. Duffy demonstrates that a thorough understanding of Deleuze's Spinozism is necessary in order to fully engage with Deleuze's philosophy of difference.
Simon Duffy is Lecturer in Philosophy, Department of Philosophy, University of Sydney, Australia.
