Zusammenfassung:The first scholarly comparative analysis of Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze's philosophies of differenceSituates the philosophy of difference within the broader context of the history of philosophy, going back to its beginnings in Plato and AristotleFocuses on the positions that Derrida and Deleuze occupy with respect to the Hegel-Nietzsche-Heidegger triumvirateProvides the first in-depth analysis of the defining distinction between Derrida and Deleuze, out of which most of the other differences (ethical, political, etc.) between the two can be more richly understoodOffers an original understanding of the history and trajectory of continental philosophy specifically, rooted in an engagement with Husserl's time-consciousness analysis and in Deleuze's adoption of Bergson's thinkingJacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze are best known for their respective attempts to theoretically formulate non-dialectical conceptions of difference. Now, for the first time, Vernon W. Cisney brings you a scholarly analysis of their contrasting concepts of difference.Cisney distinguishes their conceptions of difference by differentiating them on the basis of the criticisms they level against Hegel, as well as their valorisations of Nietzsche, and the ways in which they understand Nietzsche's thought to surpass that of Hegel. The contrast between the two, Cisney argues, is that while Deleuze formulates an affirmative conception of difference, Derrida's différance amounts to an irresolvable negativity
