John Mullarkey

Educated at Dublin , London , and Warwick , John Mullarkey has always done his best to be contrary with those around him wherever he goes: he prefers Maine de Biran to Kant, Bergson to Heidegger, Sartre to Merleau-Ponty, and Roger Moore to Sean Connery. These days he spends his time promoting the concept of the Actual over the Virtual amongst Deleuzians. This foolhardy enterprise (which is probably only a cry for help) is pursued in the following publications:
