contents We provide and discuss complex analytic methods for overcoming the formal character of formal deformation quantization. This is a necessity for returning to physically meaningful statements, and accounts for the fact that the formal parameter $\hbar$ carries the interpretation of Planck's constant. As formal star products are given by a formal power series, this naturally leads into the realm of holomorphic functions and analytic continuation, both in finite and infinite dimensions. We propose a general notion of strict deformation quantization and investigate how one can use established results from complex analysis to think about the resulting objects. Within the main body of the text, the outlined program is then put into practice for strict deformation quantizations of constant Poisson structures on locally convex vector spaces and the strict deformation quantization of canonical mechanics on the cotangent bundle of a Lie group. Numerous auxiliary results, many of which are well-known yet remarkable in their own right, are provided throughout.
