Research title
ESSAY ON ETHICS ACCORDING TO GILLES DELEUZE
Research abstract

This research aims to investigate the ethical philosophy in the work of the philosopher Gilles Deleuze. Therefore, the reading that this theme is very relevant to the Deleuzism is defended, but it appears sparingly in his writings, especially in those dealing with Nietzsche, Espinosa and the Stoics. Through the cross-reading of these authors, Deleuze composes a general critique of the moral form of existence and opposes ethics through a singular approach in which the action must be evaluated, produced and carried out immanently. With this, Deleuze is situated in the history of philosophy as a critic of the practical thoughts that are based on the transcendence of moral values; which would largely encompass most ethical philosophies, according to Deleuze.
