Collaborateur à l'Encyclopédie, lié à Diderot, Rousseau, Condillac, proche de Montesquieu, Deleyre fut élu député montagnard à la Convention. Cette minutieuse étude sur la philosophie de Bacon contribua, dès la première édition (1755), à propager les doctrines du philosophe anglais et à asseoir sa notoriété auprès des hommes des Lumières. Naigeon inséra cette étude à l'article "Bacon" du "Dictionnaire de la Philosophie" de l'Encyclopédie méthodique Panckoucke. Quelques infimes accrocs à la reliure. Très bon exemplaire, frais, bien relié.

UBALDO FADINI
DELEUZE PLURALE PER UN PENSIERO NOMADE
PENDRAGON 1999 192 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: PARI AL NUOVO, PERFETTO E INTONSO. Il libro è insieme una introduzione al pensiero di Deleuze - uno dei più importanti filosofi contemporanei - e una ricerca originale sulla concezione di “istituzione” rintracciabile soprattutto nei primi scritti. L’autore raccoglie in questo suo testo, con modifiche e integrazioni rilevanti, alcuni suoi contributi realizzati per diverse sedi: riviste, introduzioni a volumi ecc., per proporre un passo in avanti negli studi deleuziani, un approfondimento dei temi essenziali per la comprensione dell’intera ricerca del pensatore francese. In quest’ottica va appunto collocata la sottolineatura del pensiero di Deleuze su concetti come “istituzione” e “istinto” (un presupposto “forte”, quest’ultimo, per la collaborazione successiva con F. Guattari) e la proposta della centralità filosofica della “coppia” Spinoza-Nietzsche per un pensiero attento alle dimensione del corpo, del desiderio, della potenza di vita. Ubaldo Fadini insegna attualmente alla Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione dell’Università di Firenze. È autore di Il corpo imprevisto. Filosofia, antropologia e tecnica in Arnold Gehlen (Franco Angeli 1988), e Configurazioni antropologiche. Esperienze e metamorfosi della soggettività moderna (Liguori 1991). Ha pubblicato inoltre numerosi saggi sulla filosofia del Novecento (da T. Lessing a G. Deleuze e P. Virilio). Ha curato negli ultimi anni la raccolta di colloqui tra Adorno, Canetti, Gehlen, Desiderio di vita. Conversazioni sulle metamorfosi dell’umano (Mimesis 1996); la raccolta di saggi di G. Deleuze, Divenire molteplice (Ombre corte 1996); l’edizione italiana di P. Virilio, La velocità di liberazione (Strategia della Lumaca 1997).
