Críticas

"The eleven essays collected in this book produce a series of inventive digressions and displacements, or better, new social series that put cinema in play with the great critical project of Capitalism and Schizophrenia. Through the broader cultural arguments of Guattari and Deleuze, Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema opens up new discursive spaces for investigating cinema through the linked domains of politics and desire." - Professor D.N. Rodowick, Harvard University, USA "If classical film theory is like a tree with a few large branches, contemporary film theory is like the organism that has supplanted the tree as the metaphor of choice in much postmodern thought the rhizome, which grows close to the earth and exfoliates in all directions, sometimes thriving in fertile new terrain, other times hitting barren ends or doubling back in baroquely shaped folds. In recent years the film-theory rhizome has (re)turned to philosophical ground, producing a great number of provocative ideas, thanks especially to...Gilles Deleuze...Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema, edited by Ian Buchanan and Patricia MacCormack, makes a substantial contribution to Deleuze studies by presenting theories, countertheories and antitheories that evoke the multitudinous, ungraspable nature of schizoanalysis itself." -David Sterritt, New Review of Film and Television Studies

Reseña del editor

In 1971, Deleuze and Guattari's collaborative work, Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia caused an international sensation by fusing Marx with a radically rewritten Freud to produce a new approach to critical thinking they provocatively called schizoanalysis. Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema explores the possibilities of using this concept to interrogate cinematic works in both the Hollywood and non-Hollywood tradition. It attempts to define what a schizoanalysis of cinema might be and interrogates a variety of ways in which a schizoanalysis might be applied. This collection opens up a fresh field of inquiry for Deleuze scholars and poses an exciting challenge to cinema studies in general. Featuring some of the most important cinema studies scholars working on Deleuze and Guattari today, Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema is a cutting edge collection that will set the agenda for future work in this area.
