Deleuze and the question of literality

The work and practice of Deleuze allows us to organize a teaching theory around three themes: 1) Teaching is about what we are searching, not what we know; 2). We do not know what signs make a student learn or be good in whatever subject matter; 3. Thinking, as well whatever is true and false in this activity, begins when we establish the very problems. Though less visible, another aspect implies all of the previous ones, since what is at stake here is the very status of the discourse of Deleuze, our ability to understand it, and his own ability to make himself understood. I insist that we should read him literally and not metaphorically. Literality is the reason of a pedagogy internal to philosophy, of a pedagogy that is philosophical per se.
