'''Conceptual character''' is a concept developed by French philosophers [[Gilles Deleuze]] and [[Félix Guattari]]. The term denotes fictional, or semi-fictional, characters created by one or more authors to convey one or more ideas. Even if originally a historical individual may have existed, this individual was later instrumentalized by the authors. [[Michel Onfray]], in his ''Contre histoire de la philosophie'' ("Counter-history of philosophy"), regularly used this concept.
