Henri Michaux: animalidad y concienciaDOI: 10.4067/S0718-71812011000200005 Keywords: michaux, deleuze, animality, anomaly, consciousness. Abstract: this paper examines michaux's work from the perspective offered by deleuze's ontology of becoming, which is partially based on the scientific theories of simondon, geoffroy saint-hilaire and canguilhem. the analysis focuses on the category of animality, understood here as a figure that destabilizes the concept of man as an immutable form. for this purpose, we base our argument on the concepts of ?pre-individuality? (simondon) and ?anomaly? (geoffroy, canguilhem), and we indicate affinities and disparities between michaux's conception of consciousness and the deleuzean notion of ?becoming-animal?.
