GILLES DELEUZE’S SPECULATIVE ONTOLOGY
DIFFERENCE IN ITSELF
Keywords:
Deleuze, Post-critical ontologies, Difference, Contemporary philosophyAbstract
This paper offers an interpretation of Deleuze’s concept
of difference. Deleuze has sought to think difference without its traditional subordination to identity, trying to think difference for itself. In this regard, Deleuze concludes that difference is being itself in the famous thesis of the
univocity of being. What would be the status of this claim? What elements make possible such a sounding ontological statement? In this paper, we shall answer these questions by interpretating the concept of difference as a speculative one, arguing that difference is only thinkable, but not cognoscible. In order to do so, we analyze Deleuze’s critical engagement with Kant to demonstrate that there is a post-critical ontology in Deleuze’s thinking.
