Guattari Reframed presents a timely and urgent rehabilitation of one
of the twentieth century's most engaged and engaging cultural
philosophers. Best known as an activist and practising psychiatrist,
Guattari's work is increasingly understood as both eerily prescient
and vital in the context of contemporary culture. Employing the
language of visual culture and concrete examples drawn from it, this
book introduces and reassesses the major concepts developed throughout
Guattari's writings and his call to transform the deadening
homogeneity of contemporary existence into the 'universe of creative
enchantments'. Paul Elliott asserts the significance of Guattari as a
revolutionary philosopher and cultural theorist, and invites the
reader to transform both their understanding of his work and their
lives through his ideas.
