Gilles Deleuze wrote at a period when the questions philosophy asked were themselves being renegotiated.
The record lists Gilles Deleuze as French philosopher (1925–1995).
Gilles Deleuze was born at 17th arrondissement of Paris in 1925. His recorded nationality is France. He studied at University of Paris and Lycée Carnot.
Twentieth-century philosophy was marked by war, exile and ideology; many of its central figures wrote in flight or under censorship.
His academic posts were held at Lycée Louis-le-Grand, National Center for Scientific Research and University of Lyon.
The recorded fields of work are philosophy, ontology and aesthetics.
Among his principal works are Difference and Repetition, The Logic of Sense and Anti-Oedipus. Philosophical influence is measured in the questions a thinker made unavoidable.
That the work was done from France matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Gilles Deleuze died in 1995, aged 70. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
