Deleuze identified himself as a ______?

"analytical philosopher"

Answer
The French philosopher Gilles Deleuze identified himself as a "pure metaphysician." He rejected the traditional idea that metaphysics is the study of the fundamental nature of reality, arguing that it is instead the study of the relationships between different concepts. For Deleuze, metaphysics is not about finding the one true reality, but about exploring the different ways in which reality can be understood.
