  1. Continuity in Logic of Sense: Deleuze, Leibniz, Dedekind.Hamed Movahedi - forthcoming - Journal of the British Society for Phenomenology.
    This essay explores the possibility of a metaphysical concept of continuity, which seems to have an implicit though decisive presence in Deleuze’s thought. It exposes a peculiar continuity that animates the indiscernibility of borders without making its constitutive elements homogenous or convergent, a zone of indiscernibility, wherein the borders vanish between the virtual and actual, expressed and expression, incorporeals and corporeals, sense in the proposition and event in states of affairs. Continuity conditions a fundamental indiscernibility but a heterogeneous one, a (...)

  • Metaphor, Metamorphosis and Meaning: ‘All the Possibilities of Language’ in Difference and Repetition.Vernon W. Cisney - 2020 - Deleuze and Guattari Studies 14 (1):71-86.
    In this paper I explore two distinct but related emphases in Deleuze's later philosophy, both on his own and in collaboration with Félix Guattari, having to do with literature. The first is the emphasis on the work of literature as an assemblage whereby the author constructs lines of flight in the pursuit of self-experimentation and self-transformation. The second is the rejection of metaphor across Deleuze's work. I use Difference and Repetition to chart the origins of these emphases, by unpacking the (...)
