Deleuze and Sex
Angebote / Angebote:
In Deleuze's philosophy, sexuality has a central role in the production of thought, bodies and becomings. More specifically, sexuality is conceived of as a force that can capture as well as liberate life. On the one hand, sexuality tends to be restricted, blocked, and reduced and its flows are repressed. On the other hand, the sexual body is also seen as retaining a revolutionary potential and sexuality is seen as a source of becoming. This volume pursues the restricting as well as the liberating force in relation to a spread of themes and subjects central to life itself. Topics include: the limits of the human, bacteria, death, prostitution, children, disability, ecstasy, erotics and animality. The topic of sexuality is central to Deleuze, but it is an area of his philosophy that has not previously been explored in its specificity. The focus has tended to be on sex in the sense of physical gender, in particular in relation to sexual difference. This collection offers a fresh and new philosophical approach to the study of sex and sexuality as practice.
