Recenzii

Where on our bookshelves are Rosi Braidotti's works - Spinoza, French philosophy, feminism or in a category of their own? For those of us who have followed Rosi's nomadic pathway from analytic philosophy through currents of feminism to post-humanism, this book reminds us not just of her passionate engagement with ideas but also of the impact of her personality. The sheer breadth of her scholarship and her sympathies is mediated by her ability to inform and inspire. The essays here range over her interests and draw us in yet again to the debates close to her heart.
Jump, stitch, dance, embrace, repel, think, listen, play, sculpt, write, laugh, repair, resist, read and read again, talk, yearn, leap, build, compose and decompose-all of these only hint at the transformational materialist feminist practice offered to us by and with Rosi Braidotti. Her experiential nomadic ethics position us to move with, through, and for worlds that might yet be less lethal, richer, more attuned to the affectivities of fleshy difference of situated human and more-than-human subjects. The Subject of Rosi Braidotti draws me into its tissues with the same kind of verve that Braidotti herself exemplifies in her performances, writings, activisms, and bodily vitalities. Braidotti reconfigures what and whom she touches; she is a practitioner of feminist transpositions, metamorphoses, and transductions. I know because she has transformed me again and again. The many essays in this book pulsate with the energies-conceptual, political, and affectional-that Braidotti gives us.
Rosi Braidotti has been a dynamic presence on the global philosophical stage for over three decades. The extent of her work and influence is reflected in this fine collection of essays by an international array of philosophers, historians, humanities and social science scholars, gender and feminist theorists and activists who have followed her critical and creative engagement with the question of the subject and who in these pages collectively engage the process of becoming-subject that is Rosi Braidotti.
As a writer and a person, Rosi Braidotti encountered some of the most significant intellectual forces of the late twentieth century, including feminism, poststructuralism and posthumanist thought. These encounters were always transformative in both directions, nowhere more so than in her engagements with Deleuze's philosophy. The gust of wind that I first encountered in Paris in 1977 became a whirlwind that swept new ideas and activism across the academic landscape and continues to do so. This volume is a fitting tribute to an extraordinary life and work still underway.
