Charles Stivale joined us to discuss November 28, 1947: How Do You Make Yourself a Body Without Organs? from Deleuze and Guattari's landmark work, A Thousand Plateaus. Stivale has authored six books in nineteenth and twentieth-century French and Francophone studies, has edited or co-edited three volumes of studies and six journal issues, has prepared translations of two major works, a half-dozen article, and the eight hour video interview with Gilles Deleuze, published (by MIT Press/Zone) as Gilles Deleuze, From A to Z (2012). He has also published eighty journal articles and chapters in edited volumes. His research fields have included study of the nineteenth-century French novel, twentieth-century critical theory and cultural studies, the writings of French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, and research on Louisiana Cajun music and dance culture. Between 2005 and 2011, he collaborated with the former director of the University of Florida Paris Research Center, Gayle Zachmann, to organize an annual meeting of scholars in nineteenth-century French studies.
