The Natal as ground in Deleuze and Guattari

Main Article Content

Abstract

This article proposes a reading of the concept of The Natal in light of the ontology of Difference and repetition. The study of the ontological aspects of this notion in A thousand plateaus brings a new light to the intensive aspect of Deleuze’s theory of ground. In this sense, the concept of The Natal is linked with the concepts of depth and field of individuation. Finally, the bond between these concepts puts forth the novelty of Deleuze’s theory of ground in relation to the tradition of Western metaphysics, expressed in the fact that the ground is presented as a realm of individuation, becoming and multiplicity. In the last stance, the ground is overcome by an ungrounding.
