Notes

  1. Hallward, however, tends to posit a telos to this process of subtraction or extraction; it has as its end an adequate knowledge of being and a form of being-at-one-with being (90).

  2. Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari (1991, p. 182, 1994, p. 193).

  3. They write, “It is a question of a model that is perpetually in construction or collapsing, and of a process that is perpetually prolonging itself, breaking off and starting up again. No, this is not a new or different dualism. … We invoke one dualism only in order to challenge another. We employ a dualism of models only in order to arrive at a process that challenges all models.” Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari (1980, p. 31, 1987, p. 20).

  4. Hallward makes this rather striking claim: “There is no more an interactive relation between this virtual or composing power and its actual or composed result than there is between a given set of genes and the organism that incarnates them” (52). See also p. 79.

  5. Friedrich Nietzsche (1989, p. 45).

  6. See the “order of reasons” Gilles Deleuze sketches in (2003, p. 323, 1994, p. 251).

  7. Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari (1991, pp. 72–73, 1994, pp. 74–75).
