Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema Summary

Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema by Ian Buchanan (University of Wollongong, Australia)

This is a hugely important collection of essays on Deleuze and Cinema from an international panel of experts. 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.

Deleuze and the Schizoanalysis of Cinema Reviews

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
Working across cinematic genre, documentary and national cinemas this volume's ten essays align Gilles Deleuze's Cinema I & II with his wider theoretical writings. Indicative of this approach - an approach itself signalled in Buchanan's introductory essay - is Joe Hughes' chapter which returns the schizoanalysis of the volume's title to the philosopher's earlier works. Elsewhere, co-editor MacCormack's contribution builds upon the groundwork in her earlier Cinesexuality, evolving an ethical erotics of spectatorship - Flux Magazine -- Tim Huntley
