| Summary: | Our aim is to analyze the idea of language exhaustion in Gilles Deleuze and to evaluate the way the philosopher approaches literature and takes up the work of Samuel Beckett to reflect on the potentialities of literature. This article is divided into three parts: it probes the role played by literature in Deleuze's thought; it takes up Beckett's work to understand its content; it analyzes the text The Exhausted, which Deleuze wrote in 1992 as an afterword to Beckett's television plays broadcast by the BBC in London between 1975 and 1982. |
