Summary
Gilles Deleuze: Foucault
The book about Foucault is perhaps the most neglected of all the books from Deleuze's oeuvre, and that is completely unfair, because it was written in his mature period, the one in which the fruits of life's activity are harvested. It is at this experience-filled point that Deleuze introduces and develops one of his last great concepts - the envelope [pli], to describe the process of subjectivation in the form of establishing an interior of thought, an interior that is nothing but an exterior envelope.
- From the Preface by Boris Žličar
From the early sixties of the twentieth century until his death, the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) wrote many influential works in the field philosophy, literature, film and applied arts.
