OverviewAndrew Jampol-Petzinger pursues Gilles Deleuze's significantly under-discussed interpretation of Soren Kierkegaard. He presents a view of ethics and selfhood that responds to theories of moral judgment and selfhood based on stable, substance-orientated forms of identity. Starting from their common rejection of these categories of moral judgement, and looking at their shared projects of ethics as fundamentally a matter of becoming who one is, Jampol-Petzinger argues for a conception of normativity that privileges ideas of growth and self-overcoming while also recognizing the importance and need for values adequate to leading a liveable life.

Table of ContentsReviews"It is a stimulating and productive contribution that deserves to be read widely by scholars beyond the silos of Deleuze and Kierkegaard specialisms.--Steven Shakespeare ""Danish Yearbook of Philosophy"" Deleuze, Kierkegaard and the Ethics of Selfhood is an admirable text which should be of great interest to Deleuze scholars, as well as all those interested in the history of post-Kantian European philosophy and philosophy of religion.--Robert W. Luzecky ""Journal for Continental Philosophy of Religion"" Deleuze, Kierkegaard, and the Ethics of Selfhood is an admirable text which should be of great interest to Deleuze scholars, as well as all those interested in the history of post-Kantian European philosophy and philosophy of religion. --Robert W. Luzecky ""Journal for Continental Philosophy of Religion"" Although Deleuze's admiration for Kierkegaard was immense, it has often been overlooked, perhaps because some are hesitant to admit that Deleuze was influenced by such a deeply religious thinker. Jampol-Petzinger's wonderful book not only offers a nuanced assessment of the Kierkegaard-Deleuze relation but provides a profound philosophical analysis of the project of an immanent ethics that they both shared. --Daniel W. Smith, Purdue University It is a stimulating and productive contribution that deserves to be read widely by scholars beyond the silos of Deleuze and Kierkegaard specialisms. --Steven Shakespeare ""Danish Yearbook of Philosophy"" Jampol-Petzinger has successfully shown the continued relevance of Kierkegaard's thought to contemporary debates in the continental tradition, and opened the possibility of thinking a Kierkegaardian ethics compatible with a philosophy of immanence such as Deleuze's. --Henry Somers-Hall ""Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews""" Author InformationAndrew M.
