Library Person
Félix Guattari
French psychoanalyst and philosopher; with Gilles Deleuze, developed schizoanalysis and the concept of the rhizome.
Félix Guattari (1930–1992) was a French psychoanalyst and militant political theorist, based for most of his career at the experimental La Borde clinic outside Paris, where he developed institutional-psychotherapy practices that broke with orthodox Freudian and Lacanian technique. His collaboration with Gilles Deleuze, beginning after the events of May 1968, produced Anti-Oedipus (1972) and A Thousand Plateaus (1980) — together Capitalism and Schizophrenia — introducing schizoanalysis, the rhizome, and the body without organs as tools for thinking about desire, multiplicity, and non-hierarchical organization outside psychoanalytic and structuralist orthodoxy.
