Abstract
This chapter will position Deleuzian affective literacy, which is a strategic intensification of the definition above, and connected to Multiple Literacies Theory (MLT) through the investigation of subjectification in linguistic desire (Masny,2005, 2006). Deleuzian affective literacy is also a practical strategy for teaching literature. Deleuzian affective literacy may be summarized by the statement of its pragmatic requirements such as affective engagement of the teacher, affective engagement of the students, advocating the pleasure in reading, extracting affective themes from the text and designing pedagogies that effectively handle the affective themes of the text.
