Summary/Abstract: In Negotiations, Gilles Deleuze explains that whole his work deals with the keywords «sign» and «sense». The interpretation of Sacher-Masoch’s, Marcel Proust’s and Lewis Carroll’s work he offers can be linked to a corporeal semiotic. For Deleuze, interpretation in the field of literature means decoding the signs the bodies express. This paper will first focus on the way Deleuze studies a symptomatology or a corporeal semiotic related to a flying sense. Then it will deal with the way this semiotic turns out to be in Logic of sense a grammar of phantasms which can be analyzed thanks to Nietzsche’s genealogy and Freud’s archeology. The last purpose of this paper will be to study how it happens that an erotic text is encoded to become in Alice’s adventures a logical text which is not pathologic and reflects phantasms.
