Abstract

MLT is not a universal solution to literacy problems. Neither is it a theory that explains every situation in which one might become literate. Yet the application of Multiple Literacies Theory does act as a means to coming closer to dealing with the multiplicities of literacies that are present in any communicative arena. Using the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and the social theory of Deleuze and Guattari, gives the literacy analyst a new vocabulary and set of conceptual tools through which they might approach literate behavior.
