Deleuze And Derrida: Difference And The Power Of The Negative, Vernon W. Cisney

Gettysburg College Faculty Books

The first scholarly comparative analysis of Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze's philosophies of difference.

Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze are best known for their respective attempts to theoretically formulate non-dialectical conceptions of difference. Now, for the first time, Vernon W. Cisney brings you a scholarly analysis of their contrasting concepts of difference.
