It also includes Gilles Deleuze, The Actual and the Virtual. The dialogues between journalist Claire Parnet and Gilles Deleuze provide a unique insight into Deleuze's thinking. They invite readers to experience Deleuze's thought and work process as a process of becoming multiplicities. The loose format of the conversation, in which the positions of the two interlocutors sometimes differ more and sometimes less clearly, offers profound insights into the philosophical origins of Deleuze (the role of Spinoza and empiricism), the central themes and concepts of his philosophy, as well as his collaboration with Félix Guattari. In three major thematic blocks on literature, psychoanalysis, and political theory, Deleuze and Parnet develop the form and applications of a thought that attempts to escape the power apparatuses and currents of capitalism. This provides a deep insight into the concepts - rhizome, becoming, black hole, deterritorialization, micropolitics - which have become paradigmatic for Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy, particularly because the text, presented here in a revised translation, itself expresses a rhizomatic and heretical act of thought.
