Description

Deleuze’s philosophy of immanence vigorously rejects every appeal to the beyond. For this reason, it is often presumed to be indifferent to the concerns of religion. Deleuze and the Naming of God shows that this is not the case. Addressing the intersection between Deleuze’s thought and the notion of religion, Barber proposes an alliance between immanence and the act of naming God. In doing so, he gives us a way out of the paralysing debate between religion and the secular. What matters is not to take one side or the other, but to create the new in this world.
