Virginia Woolf's Ethical Subjectivity: Deleuze and Guattari's Worlding and Bernard's ‘Becoming-Savage’
Deleuze and Guatarri Studies 7 (4):562-580 (2013)
Abstract
In Virginia Woolf's 1931 novel The Waves, one of Bernard's many becomings – his ‘becoming-savage’ – reveals a point of intersection between Woolfian aesthetics and Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy. Moreover, a triangulation of Woolf's ‘moments of being’, Deleuze and Guattari's ‘worlding’, and (post)coloniality provides a new and productive node for examining the debates surrounding imperialism in these thinkers’ works, and an insistence that Woolf, read alongside Deleuze and Guattari, offers an alternate and precisely ethical way of being in the world.Other Versions
