Affirmative Ontology Study of Gilles Deleuze’s Principles of Affirmative Ontology among Pre-Kantian and Post-Kantian Philosophers
Journal Title: جستارهایی در فلسفه و کلام - Year 2016, Vol 48, Issue 97
Abstract
Deleuze presents his ontology as a post-Kantian philosophy. The main concern of post-Kantian philosophy, from Solomon Maimon to Hegel, was to construct a new metaphysics after critique of Kant and elucidation of the creation of existence. Resorting to the metaphysics of Spinoza and Leibniz as well as the philosophy of Nietzsche, Deleuze founded a new ontology. This ontology, contrary to the Hegelian ontology that had based the creation of existence on a negative principle, explains this creation on an affirmative basis. According to Deleuze, there is a totally affirmative impression of existence with Spinoza and Nietzsche that can be used for founding a new ontology. Eventually, it is this same affirmative notion that founds both a new ontology and ethics.
