The Foucault Reader

The Foucault Reader
内容简介:

Michel Foucault was one of the most influential thinkers in the contemporary world, someone whose work has affected the teaching of half a dozen disciplines ranging from literary criticism to the history of criminology. But of his many books, not one offers a satisfactory introduction to the entire complex body of his work. The Foucault Reader was commissioned precisely to serve that purpose.

.

The Reader contains selections from each area of Foucault's work as well as a wealth of previously unpublished writings, including important material written especially for this volume, the preface to the long-awaited second volume of The History of Sexuality, and interviews with Foucault himself, in the course of which he discussed his philosophy at first hand and with unprecedented candor.

.

This philosophy comprises an astonishing intellectual enterprise: a minute and ongoing investigation of the nature of power in society. Foucault's analyses of this power as it manifests itself in society, schools, hospitals, factories, homes, families, and other forms of organized society are brought together in The Foucault Reader to create an overview of this theme and of the broad social and political vision that underlies it.

    Foucault is as difficult to read as all those contemporary French scholars...But he did fashion a frame-transition in modern thoughts.

    难懂得要命,也没说什么实质性的内容,福柯的唯一贡献就是告诉淆界哪怕你水平不行逼还可以这么装。

    选的是最经典的文章,我没记错的话是福柯自己选的~ 算是管中窥豹(福柯)的最好入门吧~ 不过遗憾的是好像没有收录和乔姆斯基的那场辩论的记录。
