It is often said that Lacan is the most radical representative of
structuralism, a thinker of negativity and alienation, whereas
Deleuze is pictured as a great opponent of the structuralist
project, a vitalist and a thinker of creative potentialities of
desire. It seems the two cannot be further apart. This volume of 12
new essays breaks the myth of their foreignness (if not hostility)
and places the two in a productive conversation. By taking on
topics such as baroque, perversion, death drive, ontology/topology,
face, linguistics and formalism the essays highlight key entry
points for a discussion between Lacan's and Deleuze's respective
thoughts. The proposed lines of investigation do not argue for a
simple equation of their thoughts, but for a 'disjunctive
synthesis', which acknowledges their differences, while insisting
on their positive and mutually informed reading.
