Gentle Biologies: Reconceptualizing Bodily Transformation and Healthcare between Catherine Malabou and Anne Dufourmantelle.
This article brings Catherine Malabou's philosophy of the plasticity of biological life into dialogue with Anne Dufourmantelle's concept of gentleness, theorizing gentle biologies at the intersections of both thinkers.

It explores how, for both Malabou and Dufourmantelle, gentleness is not an innately occurring power or characteristic predetermined within biological life, but rather a force that must be plastically shaped, honed, practised. Further, if Dufourmantelle argues in Power of Gentleness (2018 [2013]) that gentleness can constitute a formidable resource for both transformation and resistance, this gentleness will be seen to resonate with conceptualizations of plasticity across Malabou's oeuvre as a similarly revolutionary potentiality. The article finishes by turning to engage with interdisciplinary work on gentleness in healthcare, arguing that such contexts constitute sites in which new modes of care towards Malabou's and Dufourmantelle's gentle biologies can be imagined. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Paragraph is the property of Edinburgh University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
