Speeding Across the Rhizome : Deleuze Meets Kerouac On the Road
Description
A reading of Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" alongside the literary criticism of Gilles Deleuze and his counterparts. Emphasis on Deleuze and Félix Guattari's notion of the "rhizome" in comparison to the spontaneous routes of cross-country travel taken by characters in Kerouac's novel, and the innovative styles and shapes of his prose. Conversation with Deleuze's own reading of and writings on "On the Road" through the critic's descriptions of what is meant by the term "minor literature" : writing which is characteristically "deterritorializ[ed]" and exhibits a collective, political nature.
