A Deleuzian Century?
Michel Foucault’s suggestion that this century would become known as “Deleuzian” was considered by Gilles Deleuze himself to be a joke “meant to make people who like us laugh, and make everyone else livid.” Whether serious or not, Foucault’s prediction has had enough of an impact to raise concern about the potential “deification” of this enormously influential French philosopher. Seeking to counter such tendencies toward hagiography—not unknown, particularly since Deleuze’s death—Ian Buchanan has assembled a collection of essays that constitute a critical and focused engagement with Deleuze and his work.
Originally published as a special issue of South Atlantic Quarterly (Summer 1997), this volume includes essays from some of the most prominent American, Australian, British, and French scholars and translators of Deleuze’s writing. These essays, ranging from film, television, art, and literature to philosophy, psychoanalysis, geology, and cultural studies, reflect the broad interests of Deleuze himself. Providing both an introduction and critique of Deleuze, this volume will engage those readers interested in literary and cultural theory, philosophy, and the future of those areas of study in which Deleuze worked.

Contributors. Ronald Bogue, Ian Buchanan, André Pierre Colombat, Tom Conley, Manuel DeLanda, Tessa Dwyer, Jerry Aline Flieger, Eugene Holland, Fredric Jameson, Jean-Clet Martin, John Mullarkey, D. N. Rodowick, Horst Ruthrof, Charles J. Stivale

Foodscapes: Towards a Deleuzian Ethics of Consumption
This fascinating volume draws on the work of Gilles Deleuze to examine how we relate to the edible. Rick Dolphijn traveled to the disparate cities of Hangzhou, Boston, Bangalore, and Lyon and conducted over one hundred interviews with the cities' residents. He then used the philosophical concepts of Deleuze to analyze his travel experiences and investigate the role of food in human culture and society. His work shows how the micropolitics of food reveal fascinating insights into cultural concepts such as the self, the state, dietetics, and capitalism. Foodscapes ultimately offers an unusual and intriguing perspective on food's complex role in our daily lives.

From the author: Dans cette epoque ou les manifestations populaires et violentes contre la mondialisation s'accroitrent, ce commentaire cherche a repondre a la question: la mondialisation de quoi? La reponse offerte propose que ce qui se mondialise c'est << Industria >> : un systeme de pouvoir-savoir; un << assemblage machinique >> recemment concu de divers systemes globaux competitifs. Suite a une description des serieux defis dont les communautes humaines et la biosphere font face, le commentaire fait appele a Gilles Deleuze et son collegue Felix Guattari, pour exposer les erreurs cognitives qui supportent ces problemes politiques et environnementaux. En appliquant la philosophie de 'Difference' a la geopolitique et la gestion de l'utilisation des ressources naturelles, l'auteure demontre que l'epistemologie de la representation et les ontologies constitutives de la logique Identitaire, obstruent l'interconnexion entre les etres humains et non-humains et provoque le conflit politique et la degradation ecologique. De la, l'hypothese Industria est offerte comme reponse conceptuelle a la critique de Deleuze et Guattari de l'Urstaat, pour les academiques qui cherche a etablir l'equitabilite socio-economique et ecologique soutenue. Finalement, ce commentaire explore brievement le potentiel d'une geopolitique differentielle et bioregionale comme alternative a l'Industria.

Discern(e)ments: Deleuzian Aesthetics--Esthetiques deleuziennes (Faux Titre 251)
A bilingual collection of essays on the aesthetics of Gilles Deleuze, Discern(e)ments highlights what is at stake in Deleuzian philosophy of art. It traces the reception of Deleuzian thought in a broad range of disciplines and gauges its use-value in each of them. Following the dynamics between structure and becoming that punctuates Deleuzian aesthetics, Discern(e)ments sketches and erases boundaries between methods and traditions in philosophy and art theory, as well as in literary, performance and film studies. Offering both numerous case-studies as well as theoretical outlines, Discern(e)ments engages faculties, disciplines and criticisms not in a mere exchange of points of view, but in heterogenesis mapping out further discernments in Deleuzian aesthetics..

Machinic Modernism: The Deleuzian Literary Machines of Woolf, Lawrence and Joyce
How can the concepts of Deleuze and Guattari be used to unearth the 'metaphysics' of modernist literature? This intersection of philosophy and key literary works uses their radical concepts to draw a dynamic map of modernism that explores the confrontation of each writer with the non-human machine age of the early twentieth-century.
