Gilles Deleuze and Jacques Derrida are the two leading philosophers of French post-structuralism. Both theorists have been widely studied but very little has been done to examine the relation between them. Between Deleuze and Derrida is the first book to explore and compares their work. This is done via a number of key themes, including the philosophy of difference, language, memory, time, event, and love, as well as relating these themes to their respective approaches to Philosophy, Literature, Politics and Mathematics. Contributors: Eric Alliez, Branka Arsic, Gregg Lambert, Leonard Lawlor, Alphonso Lingis, Tamsin Lorraine, Jeff Nealon, Paul Patton, Arkady Plotnitsky, John Protevi, Daniel W. Smith
"a fascinating study of the similarities and differences between the two philosophers and in particular the ethical and political threads underlying their connection. "-Critical Horizons, September 2003
"...this is an important book, provoking us to explore what Delezue calls the zone of indiscernibility—the region lacking simple identity or opposotional difference—between these two important thinkers." -Philosophy in Review, 12/03 -- Jack Reynolds and Jon Roffe
"This fine collection examines tensions and similarities between the views of Deleuze and Derrida...The articles take various approaches to these topics, and this results in interesting overlaps that nicely elucidate nuances and complexities in the thought of each philosopher, as well as their intellectual relationship....This book should be of value to theologians, philosophers of religious, and ethicists, as well as anyone interested in either Deleuze or Derrida." -Religious Studies Review, 01/04 -- George Aichele * Religious Studies Review *
