Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the intertextual and functional relationship of Gilles Deleuze and Marcel Proust. Through the logic of text subordination and the Deleuzian conception of the communication of events, the article analyzes the philosophical relation of the metatext and of the primary text. In spite of the reflexive and rhetorical procedures used in the relation , the relation cannot be reduced to them. Philosophical work with the primary text along with reflection and rhetoric involve the creation of concepts. The primary text for such work is neither an instrument nor object of reflection, but the medium for experiment. However, creativity is not a freely chosen method. Creativity requires an encounter and necessity implied in it. On the other hand, it does not mean that the philosophical relation is contingent and occurs without the participation of the subject of philosophy
