Radically reorientates the future direction of Continental philosophy according to a geo-political image of thought Presents the notion of ‘geophilosophy’ as an alternative to contemporary theories of political theologyOffers a defence of Lyotard’s concept of le differend as charting the future of continental philosophyHighlights the role of collective identification in the creation of conceptual personae and ‘isms’ in the history of continental thought Shows Nietzsche’s influence on the uniquely modern role of the ‘conceptual persona’ in the philosophy of DeleuzeDrawing from his previous writings on the search for a new image of thought and the vitalist role of ‘conceptual personae’ in the history of philosophy, Gregg Lambert proposes a new geo-political image of thought that is uniquely commensurate with the globalisation of contemporary continental philosophy.Inspired by Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of geo-philosophy and Jean-Francois Lyotard’s archipelago of contemporary political reason, Lambert radically reorients the future direction of continental philosophy, no longer defined traditionally according to national and linguistic traditions and by the opposition with Anglo-American academic philosophy.
