Desire and writing practice: a schizoanalytic essay
The present essay aims to reflect on the practice of writing and its relationship with desire, from a schizoanalytic perspective, a kind of thought created and developed by philosopher Gilles Deleuze and psychoanalyst Félix Guattari. From this objective, in this qualitative approach text, I carried out a narrative review of literature on the topic. So, I developed the following points of discussion: into four parts: Schizoanalysis and Desire; Writing and Capturing Desire; Writings and Releases of Blocked Flows; and Writing and Lines of Segmentarity and Flight. These points allow me to understand writing as a practice that can contribute to the internalization of the watchwords and the consequent capture of desire, or even writing that can contribute to the flows that were once blocked by the desires of culture, while these flows intersect with each other, freeing some and blocking others. It is about writing as practice that can contribute to the production of bodies, of subjectivities. A political practice, which is related to an ethics, an ethics that is for life.
