Description:

In this work, Deleuze proposes a new and radical conception of the baroque, relating this to a fresh interpretation of Leibnitz. This book embodies an original way of understanding major intellectual and artistic movements, using the baroque as a theoretical tool to analyze contemporary works of art and so-called modern condition. It is aimed at students of philosophy, aesthetics, art history and literature. Deleuze's other publications include Nietzche and Philosophy, Kant's Critical Philosophy, Cinema I, Cinema II and Logic of Sense.
