Gilles Deleuze und Spinoza.
Eine Tagung der Spinoza-Gesellschaft, des
Philosophischen Instituts der Martin-Luther-Universität Halle/Wittenberg und des Département de Philosophie der Université Paris Ouest, Nanterre,
vom 24. 5. bis 26. 5. 2013 in Lutherstadt-Wittenberg, Leucorea
On Friday 9 November, the Philosophy Department at the University of Warwick will host a one-day workshop on the topic of Gilles Deleuze’sNietzsche and Philosophy:
Fifty years ago, Gilles Deleuze published his second book, a monograph on Nietzsche. In this book, Deleuze poses Nietzsche’s philosophy as an attempt to rethink Kant’s project as an alternative to Hegel’s. In his reading of Nietzsche, Deleuze develops his philosophy in contrast to the Hegelian dialectic and develops extensively for the first time a philosophy of affirmation. In addition to developing many of Nietzsche’s concepts, features of Deleuze’s later philosophy (e.g. new and dogmatic images of thought) appear for the first time in Nietzsche and Philosophy. However, the book has been marginalised in many areas of scholarship: by Hegelian scholars who reject Deleuze’s polemical stance against Hegel; by Nietzschean scholars who regard the book warily as too systematic a reading of Nietzsche’s philosophy; and by Deleuzian scholars who prefer those later works in which Deleuze “does philosophy” as opposed to his earlier, historical works.
The aims of the workshop are philosophical as well as historical: through close readings of the text and of scholarship about the text, papers will: (i) critically engage with the problems and tensions which occupy Deleuze in this work; (ii) and critically assess and evaluate the importance of this work both in its contribution to past and present Nietzschean and Deleuzian scholarship.
Anyone interested in attending this event should contact Keith Ansell-Pearson (k.j.ansell-pearson@warwick.ac.uk) or Simon Scott (S.Scott.3@warwick.ac.uk) for further information. There is a £5 registration fee for the workshop to cover the costs of providing tea and coffee and basic administrative costs. Places for the workshop are limited, and you are advised to register your interest as soon as possible.
The First International Deleuze Studies in Asia Conference will be held at Tamkang University, Taipei, Taiwan, from May 31-June 2, 2013. The theme of the conference will be “Creative Assemblage” (for more detail, please visit the conference website.
The deadline for submitting paper/panel proposal will be February 1, 2013. Before the conference, there will be a five-day Deleuze Camp, running from May 25-29, 2013. Seven seminars conducted by internationally renowned Deleuze scholars will deal with issues such as creative assemblages, image, art, aesthetics, schizoanalysis, and biology. Ian Buchanan, Jeffrey Bell, Claire Colebrook, Patricia Pisters, John Protevi, Anne
Sauvagnargues, and Kailin Yang will each lead a seminar with four sessions. For more of the camp, please visit the website .
As there are limited slots for the camp, registration will be accepted on a first come first serve basis.
Wir wollen mit unserem Symposion dem deutschsprachigen Diskurs einen Anstoß geben und Deleuze, der keine Schule gründen wollte, gerecht werden, indem wir dazu einladen, ihn weiter zu denken. D.h. die Beiträge des Symposions sollen Deleuze nicht bloß wiederholen, sondern sich auf Materialien beziehen, die erst nach der Veröffentlichung der Kino-Bücher entstanden sind. Dabei kann es sich um die Werke jüngerer Filmautoren handeln wie Jim Jarmusch, Wong Kar-Wei oder Tom Tykwer oder auch um neue Formate wie durch Serien wie Die Sopranos, The Wire oder Breaking Bad entwickelt worden sind. Eignen sich Deleuzes Begriffe, Einsichten und Werkzeuge zur Analyse neuerer Produktionen? Oder zwingen die Widerworte, die sie geben, zur Veränderung der Theorie? Was weicht ab? Was bewegt sich? Zugrunde liegt unserem Symposion die Einsicht, dass Deleuzes komplexe und dichte Filmphilosophie film- und medien-, sozial- und erziehungswissenschaflichen Diskursen noch heute neue Denkanstöße geben kann, wenn man ihr nur Gelegenheit dazu gibt.
Die Tagung wird am Institut für Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaft der Alpen-Adria Universität Klagenfurt vom 26.9 bis 28.9. 2012 stattfinden. Bitte, senden Sie Ihre Abstracts an Olaf Sanders (olaf.sanders@uni-koeln.de) und Rainer Winter (rainer.winter@uni-klu.ac.at).
