Book Deleuzian Critique of Queer Thought

Download or read book Deleuzian Critique of Queer Thought written by Nir Kedem and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Holding queer theory to its promise to revolutionise our ways of thinking, Nir Kedem offers a forceful encounter between Deleuze's work and contemporary queer thought to provide both critical and practical means to re-evaluate and rework key concepts and methods, especially sexuality. Kedem provides a new pragmatic approach to working with Deleuze across multiple disciplines, a rigorous demonstration of its critical and creative power, as well as extensive analysis of the relations between Deleuze and queer thought. All of which exemplify that despite - if not owing to - the unassuming role of sexuality in his thought, Deleuze proves to be queer thought's true ally.

  • Release : 2009-01-30
  • ISBN : 0748634061
  • Pages : 200 pages

Download or read book Deleuze and Queer Theory written by Chrysanthi Nigianni and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-30 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exciting collection of work introduces a major shift in debates on sexuality: a shift away from discourse, identity and signification, to a radical new conception of bodily materialism. Moving away from the established path known as queer theory, itsuggests an alternative to Butler's matter/representation binary. It thus dares to askhow to think sexuality and sex outside the discursive and linguistic context that hascome to dominate contemporary research in social sciences and humanities. Deleuze and Queer Theory is a provocative and often militant collection that explores a diverse range of themes including: the revisiting of the term 'queer'; a rethinking of the sex-gender distinction as being implied in Queer Theory; an exploration of queer temporalities; the non/re-reading of the homosexual body/desire and the becoming-queer of the Deleuze/Guattari philosophy. It will be essential reading for anyone interested not just in Deleuze's and Guattari's philosophy, but also in the fields of sexuality, gender and feminist theory.

Book Queer and Deleuzian Temporalities

Download or read book Queer and Deleuzian Temporalities written by Rachel Loewen Walker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rachel Loewen Walker's original study of Deleuze's theory of temporality advances a concept of the living present as a critical juncture through which novel meanings and activisms take flight in relation to new feminist materialisms, queer theory, Indigenous studies, and studies of climate. Drawing on literature, philosophy, popular culture, and community research, Loewen Walker unsettles the fierce linearity of our stories, particularly as they uphold fixed systems of gender, sexuality, and identity. Treading new ground for Deleuzian studies, this book focuses on the non-linearity of the living present to show that everything is within rather than outside of time. Through this critical re-evaluation, which takes in climate change, queer and trans politics, and Indigenous sovereignty, Queer and Deleuzian Temporalities “thickens” the present moment. By opening up multiple pasts and multiple futures we are invited to act with a deepened level of accountability to all possible timelines.

Book Dark Deleuze

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andrew Culp
  • Publisher : U of Minnesota Press
  • Release : 2016-06-15
  • ISBN : 1452953120
  • Pages : 95 pages

Download or read book Dark Deleuze written by Andrew Culp and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French philosopher Gilles Deleuze is known as a thinker of creation, joyous affirmation, and rhizomatic assemblages. In this short book, Andrew Culp polemically argues that this once-radical canon of joy has lost its resistance to the present. Concepts created to defeat capitalism have been recycled into business mantras that joyously affirm “Power is vertical; potential is horizontal!” Culp recovers the Deleuze’s forgotten negativity. He unsettles the prevailing interpretation through an underground network of references to conspiracy, cruelty, the terror of the outside, and the shame of being human. Ultimately, he rekindles opposition to what is intolerable about this world. Forerunners is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital works. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.

Book Deleuze  Digital Media and Thought

    Book Details:
  • Author : Timothy Deane-Freeman
  • Publisher : Edinburgh University Press
  • Release : 2024-05-31
  • ISBN : 1399517279
  • Pages : 274 pages

Download or read book Deleuze Digital Media and Thought written by Timothy Deane-Freeman and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-31 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timothy Deane-Freeman traces Deleuze's remarks about the digital to reveal both their origins and implications. In so doing, we encounter a position which is fundamentally ambiguous. On the one hand, digital techniques are intimately related to what Deleuze calls 'societies of control', which deploy them in order to close down potential spaces of creativity and resistance. On the other, digital images take up the mantle of cinema, displacing habitual forms of cognition and forcing us to think in new ways. Deane-Freeman traces these dual impulses through the images of cinema, television and social media, as well as explicating key Deleuzian concepts, including virtuality, immanence and the outside.

It will appeal to readers across a range of subjects, including gender and sexuality studies, philosophy, cultural studies, political science, and education.
