It will come as no surprise that, for Freud, the “libido,” which is initially defined as affect linked specifically to the sexual drive stricto sensu, ends up designating the mobility or the “rhetoric” o f the quantum of affect in gen eral.

T he labile character of the libido, which makes it susceptible to infinite detours, becomes the dominant trait of psy chic energy in its entirety.
Both cases, however, entail an elaboration of form. How can these two plasticities coexist? All of these questions are questions that I address in this book. It has often been objected to me, in spite o f my reiterated insistence upon the three senses o f plasticity—reception, donation, and annihilation of form— that, ultimately, I myself privilege the first two (creative) senses over the final (negative) sense; that I merely evoke destructive plasticity without ever concretely envisaging it; that I only ever deal with it allusively; that I only ever explore the creative dimensions of plasticity: invention, suppleness, resistance, the ability to oppose flexibility.
