To provide a display device without impairing display characteristic and to provide the driving method therefor.

This liquid crystal display device receives a video signal with a different interlace scanning drive from an odd number field and an even number field with respect to pixels arranged in a matrix. The display device is provided with a means that inverses polarity of a voltage of the video signal for a period longer than one field and a means deviating a timing inverting the polarity of the voltage by a time being an integer multiple of the field period in the unit of rows on which the pixels are arranged.
