In Deleuze: The Clamor of Being, Badiou presents his views on Deleuze's ontology, and by enumerating some features in Deleuze's view, he finally calls him a philosopher of the one who relies on the Stoic view of what overthrows Plato. The reader was unsuccessful and his philosophical project has not achieved anything in the end except the surrender of plurality to unity. For Badiou, who considers only the mission of the contemporary philosopher to break away from the concept of unity in any way, concepts such as the spiritual communion of existence and the eternal return will only reach the equality of existence and unity, and even the difference in Deleuze ontology will ultimately be a function of the "same" and a single leader. In this article, we will try to enumerate some of Badiou's critiques on the relationship between Deleuze and the Stoic view, as well as apply the concept of eternal return and his view of Deleuze as a philosopher of the one thing and finally, defend difference and repetition as multiplicity based versions and show that the fundamental root of Badiou's critiques can be seen in his incoherent conception of unity and the deliberate confusion of the concepts of the spiritual commonality of existence and unity.

Heraclitus is widely held to believe in Becaming (universal Flux, Motion, so to speak): whereas Parmenides in Stability (Rest, to use Platonic terminology). If it really were so, how then could we explain the eternal caracter of Heraclitian Logos or the emergence (genesis) of beings as Parmenides describes it in second part of his poem ?In this paper, we are dealing only with Heraclitus, focusing on fragment 32: “One, sole Sage, is unwilling and yet willing to be called by the name of Zeus”. To do so, we first assess some leading commentaries, then we suggest a different interpretation of the same fragment.

One of the most basic metaphysical doctrines is the "Oneness". We are, in this paper, coming to introduce this doctrine in Aristotle; and, so, at first, we mention basic differences between him and his formers, and distinguish Aristotle's "multiple" view from their "monistic" view. Then, counting the meanings of "one" in common Greek language, we receive to two kinds of oneness: material and formal. We will see that perfection, oneness, and form are parallel to potentiality, multiplicity, and matter; and oneness, in its foremost sense, is the formal "one", not material; and this formal "one" is the principle of individuality. Finally, we will see that how immovable movers, and most of all the first immovable mover, are abstract individuals and the first "Ones".
