A collection of essays on the approaches and applications of Deleuze's philosophy to the body. Using a variety of contemporary cultural, scientific and philosophical lines of enquiry, the contributors produce a truly multidisciplinary view of the Deleuzian body, inviting us to look afresh at art, movement and literature. The Deleuzian body is not necessarily a human body, but the lines of enquiry here all illuminate the idea of the human body and thinking about formation, origins and becoming in relation to power, creativity and affect. Key features. Brings a new perspective to Spinozan and Nietzschean ideas of the body Contributors include Ella Brians, Claire Colebrook, Rebecca Coleman, Anna Cutler, Patricia MacCormack, Iain MacKenzie, John Protevi, Peta Malins, Philipa Rothfield and Nathan Widder Of interest to those concerned with theories of the body and affectivity, and those interested in performance arts, film and contemporary culture
