Full Description
This study invites Deleuze into the genre of children's literature and explores how Deleuzian concepts can enhance our readings of this literature whose implied readership masks much paradox. In Deleuze in Children's Literature, Jane Newland focuses on the children's texts written by some of the authors who fascinate Deleuze, including Virginia Woolf, James Joyce, Lewis Carroll, Andre Dhotel, Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clezio and Michel Tournier: authors who recur across Deleuze's work and shape his literary writings. With chapters on pure repetition, becoming, cartographies, stuttering and nonsense, Newland demonstrates how these concepts, central to Deleuzian philosophy, can invigorate readings of children's literature. Deleuze in Children's Literature brings together Deleuzian thought and contemporary scholarship in children's literature to provide a novel and timely insight into readings of children's literature in the twenty-first century.
