Beskrivning
The Invention of a People explores the residual relation between Heidegger's thought and Deleuze's novelty. Contextualising the problematic of a people-to-come within a larger political and philosophical context, Janae Sholtz casts Deleuze's project as both an extension and radicalization of the Heideggerian themes of immanence, ontological difference and the transformative potential of art.Sholtz invents creative encounters which act as provocations from the outside, opening new lines of flight and previously unthought terrain. Ultimately she develops a diagrammatic image of a people-to-come that is constantly in flux and can answer the demands of the untimely future.

Recensioner i media

This is a groundbreaking study of remarkable lucidity and depth that offers an insightful comparison of two of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century. In fact it is much more than a comparison. One who reads this book is rewarded with an extraordinarily insightful, independent account of both Heidegger and Deleuze and this is what makes the comparisons so cogent and effective. Sholtz also effectively shows the indissoluble connection between aesthetics and politics in both of these authors and argues persuasively that the future of politics will follow the path Heidegger and Deleuze have opened.
