The year of the 12th Annual Deleuze & Guattari Studies conference marks the 50th anniversary of three crucial events in the development of their work that would have lasting impact: Deleuze’s publication of his second major work The Logic of Sense; Guattari’s composition of his ‘Machine and Structure’, which critically reviewed both that work and Deleuze’s earlier Difference and Repetition; and the pair’s first face-to-face meeting. The conference theme aims to capture this important point of transition that sees the close of Deleuze’s earlier solo career and the beginning of Deleuze and Guattari’s collaboration, which brings with it their break with structuralism and psychoanalysis as well as explorations of whole new areas of aesthetics, ethics, politics, archaeology, science, evolutionary theory, and more.
The conference will take place from Monday to Wednesday, 8-10 July 2019 at Royal Holloway, University of London
