Subject: Intuition and Idea


Not only what is the role and meaning of INTUITION in DG but also what is
the role and meaning of the IDEA?

e.g. Nomadology (pgs 38,40,99,117)

"(the nomad sciences) subordinate all their operations to the sensible
conditions of intuition and construction"

(the differences between nomad and imperial science) is "somewhat like
intuition and intelligence in Bergson, where only intelligence has the
scientific means to solve formally the problems posed by intuition" 

speaking of the formation of conceptual models:
"the question is not to know if such a translation is conceptually
legitimate - it is - but only to know what intuition gets lost in it"

"it is necessary to retain the concept of the pure Idea ... an Idea,
something real and non-actual"
