Philosophy: A Journey of Creation Over Discovery

Deconstructionism critiques the historical pursuit of philosophy for attempting to uncover an objective truth, deeming it a disappointing endeavor as it has produced grand narratives without resolution. In contrast, post-structuralism, exemplified by Deleuze, acknowledges that philosophers were never capable of attaining absolute truth. Instead of judging philosophical efforts by their truth claims, Deleuze redefines the role of philosophy as a process of creation, challenging the notion that philosophy is a failure for lacking conclusive answers. This perspective invites a deeper exploration of what philosophers have engaged in historically, shifting focus from discovery to creative interpretation.
