Opis

This massive book is an intensive inquest into the fate of the human subject as it passes through the primitive, despotic, passional and capitalist regimes found in Deleuze and Guattari.

Recenzje

"<> is a highly impressive piece of academic work. Most elegantly written, it is erudite and well-researched as well as original and deeply passionate. Most importantly, moving between theology and literature, between anthropology and political philosophy, Lubczonok never loses sight of his main subject-the human subject itself." -Professor Adam Lipszyc, Institute of Philosophy and Sociology, Polish Academy of Science
