Felix Guattari (1930-1992) was a radical analyst, social theorist
and activist-intellectual. Best known for his collaborations with
the philosopher Gilles Deleuze on "Anti-Oedipus, A Thousand
Plateaus" and "What is Philosophy?, The Guattari Reader" makes
available for the first time the broad canvas of Guattari's
formidable theoretical and activist writings, many previously
untranslated, to provide an indispensable companion to the existing
literature.
Aside from illustrating the salience of Guattari's collaborative
work with Deleuze and other European intellectuals, this volume
charts Guattari's own solo writing career - from his tenure as
Lacan's analysand in the 1950s and his prominent role in the
international anti-psychiatry movement of the 1960s through his
participation in queer politics, outlaw radio, and the formation of
subversive collective organizations. This volume provides an
important register of Guattari's more political side, documenting
his interventions in particular political conflicts in contemporary
Europe.
Guattari's ideas and projects defy disciplinary boundaries and
escape compartmentalization. They will appeal to those working in
and between politics, philosophy, semiotics, psychoanalysis,
sociology, and cultural studies.
