Gilles Deleuze's ABCs: The Folds of Friendship

Charles J. Stivale's "Gilles Deleuze's ABCs: The Folds of Friendship" explores the concept of friendship in the work of philosopher Gilles Deleuze, using his Abécédaire as a central reference point. The book examines how Deleuze views friendship not as a singular practice but as a multifaceted phenomenon, akin to the "folds" found in his broader philosophical ideas. Stivale analyzes Deleuze's engagements with other thinkers like Foucault and Derrida to illuminate these "folds," considering friendship's connection to literature, signs, style, and the impersonal aspects of human relations. Ultimately, the study positions friendship as a key element for understanding Deleuze's unique philosophical landscape and its implications.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Gilles-Deleuzes-ABCs-Friendship-Re-visions-ebook/dp/B07DFMCWKG?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=88f12c03c29f98867287e039b8ee62fc&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by Podcai Studio:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
