Abstract

This brief article traces the intersecting lines and stories of this special issue on Deleuze and intimacy. It offers a take how it found its way onto these pages after nearly 2 years and through two conference symposia, and outlines how the contributions—variously and differently—make a case for intimacy, through Deleuze, as an approach to, a subject of, and/or a necessary and vital affective force in, research—and beyond.
