In 1953 Deleuze published his first book, Empirisme et subjetivité. Essai sur la nature humain selon Hume. Deleuze points out in the first place a different statement regarding Hume’s empiricism, namely to indicate that empiricism is definable in terms of an intrinsic relation with the senses, and that knowledge, in the first instance, comes from them. Deleuze will remark that empiricism must be defined, first of all, in relation to the problem of subjectivity. Empiricism will constitute a doctrine that states that subjectivity is not given, but rather must be produced or constituted (we will call this a “genesis of subjectivity”). In what way is the genesis produced? Through the action of certain principles that are extensive to human nature: passion and association. Deleuze's Hume will deal with this movement, and will allow the French author to elaborate a first index of his metaphyscs, which he will call a few years later “transcendental empiricism”.
