How should we think about health after Deleuze and Guattari? What kind of symptomatology and idea of the clinical do they affirm? Why is literature at the heart of these questions? With exceptional clarity and sensitivity, Aidan Tynan gives us subtle and much needed answers. His investigation points to a new and liberating critical practice. James Williams, University of Dundee The first study of Deleuze's critical and clinical project Aidan Tynan addresses Deleuze's assertion, that 'literature is an enterprise of health'. Tynan shows how a concern with health and illness was a characteristic of Deleuze's philosophy as a whole, from his early works on Nietzsche and Masoch and ground-breaking collaborations with Guattari to his final, enigmatic statements on the singularity of life. Tynan explains why alcoholism, anorexia, manic depression and schizophrenia are key concepts in Deleuze's literary theory. He demonstrates the ways in which, with the turn to schizoanalysis, literature takes on a crucial political and ethical role in helping us to diagnose our present pathologies and articulate the possibilities of a health to come. Aidan Tynan received his PhD from the Centre for Critical and Cultural Theory at Cardiff University. He has edited a special issue of the journal Deleuze Studies entitled Deleuze and the Symptom.
