Death and Desire in Hegel, Heidegger and Deleuze

"This book stages an encounter among Hegel, Heidegger and Deleuze. Much recent work has been done on the relation between Hegel and Heidegger, but none that puts both in conversation with Deleuze. The results of this conversation are striking in psychoanalytic terms, Hegel's ontology is fundamentally mournful, while Heidegger's ontology is fundamentally melancholic. Brent Adkins argues that the solution to this antinomy is found in Deleuze and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus, where they take us beyond the limits of mourning and melancholia by refusing both. The result is a new (joyful) way of thinking about death that does not require philosophy to be a constant meditation on death."--Jacket.
