EGS Online Links Michel Foucault Madness and Unreason: History of Madness in the Classical Age , 1961). In this text, Foucault abolished the possibility of separating madness and reason into universally objective categories. He does this by studying how the division has been historically established, how the distinctions we make between madness and sanity are a result of the invention of madness in the Age of Reason. He does a reading of Descartes' First Meditation , and accuses him of being able to doubt everything except his own sanity, thus excluding madness from hyperbolic doubt. In the 1960s Foucault was head of the philosophy departments at the University of Clemont-Ferrand, and at the Vincennes Experimental University Centre. It was at this time that he met the philosophy student Daniel Defert, whose political activism would be a major influence on Foucault. When Defert went to fulfill his volunteer service requirement in Tunisia, Foucault followed, teaching in Tunisia from 1966-68. They returned to Paris during the time of the student revolts, an event that would have a profound effect on Foucault's work. He took the position of head of the Philosophy Department at the University of Paris-VII at Vincennes where he brought together some of the most influential thinkers in France at the time. It was in 1968 that he formed, with others, the Prison Information Group, an organization that gave voice to the concerns of prisoners.

    Extractions: back to intro PART THREE: DISCIPLINE 3. Panopticism The following, according to an order published at the end of the seventeenth century, were the measures to be taken when the plague appeared in a town.l Five or six days after the beginning of the quarantine, the process of purifying the houses one by one is begun. All the inhabitants are made to leave; in each room 'the furniture and goods' are raised from the ground or suspended from the air; perfume is poured around the room; after carefully sealing the windows, doors and even the keyholes with wax, the perfume is set alight. Finally, the entire house is closed while the perfume is consumed; those who have carried out the work are searched, as they were on entry, 'in the presence of the residents of the house, to see that they did not have something on their persons as they left that they did not have on entering'. Four hours later, the residents are allowed to re-enter their homes. Bentham's Panopticon Panopticon opens with a list of the benefits to be obtained from his 'inspection-house': 'Morals reformed - health preserved - industry invigorated - instruction diffused -public burthens lightened - Economy seated, as it were, upon a rock - the gordian knot of the Poor-Laws not cut, but untied - all by a simple idea in architecture!'

Anderson, an associate professor of political science, published "Foucault and the Iranian Revolution: Gender and the Seductions of Islamism" (University of Chicago Press, $60 hardcover, $24 paperback). In the appendix, Foucault's first-hand reports on the 1979 Iranian revolution are translated, many of them for the first time. "Michel Foucault is one of the best known and most widely read philosophers of our time," Anderson says. "There are hundreds of books and articles about Foucault and his influence in areas including history, philosophy, social sciences and education. However, his reporting on the Iranian revolution is not well known because his stint as a journalist during the Iranian revolution is often ignored. Our book is really the first complete resource in English that highlights his writings about Iran."

    Extractions: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the third debate of the International Philosophers' Project. Tonight's debaters are Mr. Michel Foucault, of the College de France, and Mr. Noam Chomsky, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Both philosophers have points in common and points of difference. Perhaps the best way to compare both philosophers would be to see them as tunnellers through a mountain working at opposite sides of the same mountain with different tools, without even knowing if they are working in each other's direction.

    Extractions: A synopsis This is a synopsis of Michel Foucault's essay prepared for my students in ENGL 4F70 . I apologize for any errors or misrepresentations. The pagination refers to the volume The Foucault Reader ed. Paul Rabinow The pursuit of the origins is essentialist: "because it is an attempt to capture the exact, and pure, [transhistorical, immanent] essence of things," it assumes a world of forms preexisting the world of accident and succession i.e., history... "But he who listens to history finds that things have no pre-exisiting essence, or an essence fabricated piecemeal from alien forms." (78) In short, not the "inviolable identity of their origin" but disparity is at the beginning of things. 'Origin' suggests a lofty beginning a before-the-Fall, therefore a realm of gods; but origins are in fact lowly, even derisive. the 'origin' makes possible a field of knowledge whose end is to recover the origin, but as a thing lost, fleetingly to be glimpsed, and creating a sense that truth and truthful discourse can coincide. But history reveals 'origins' in a proliferation of errors. What truth is "is the sort of error that cannot be refuted because it has hardened into an unalterable form in the long baking process of history." (79 ft)

    Extractions: [Doc. List E6] [Newsletter E8] The History of Sexuality – About Foucault Author unknown Michel Foucault's "The History of Sexuality" pioneered queer theory. In it he builds an argument grounded in a historical analysis of the word "sexuality" against the common thesis that sexuality always has been repressed in Western society. Quite the contrary: since the 17th century, there has been a fixation with sexuality creating a discourse around sexuality. It is this discourse that has created sexual minorities. This page only covers the views he presents in "The History of Sexuality". In "The History of Sexuality", Foucault attempts to disprove the thesis that Western society has seen a repression of sexuality since the 17th century and that sexuality has been unmentionable, something impossible to speak about. In the 70s, when the book was written, the sexual revolution was a fact. The ideas of the psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich, saying that to conserve your mental health you needed to liberate your sexual energy, were popular. The past was seen as a dark age where sexuality had been something forbidden. Foucault, on the other hand, states that Western culture has long been fixated on sexuality. We call it a repression. Rather, the social convention, not to mention sexuality, has created a discourse around it, thereby making sexuality ubiquitous. This would not have been the case, had it been thought of as something quite natural. The concept "sexuality" itself is a result of this discourse. And the interdictions also have constructive power: they have created sexual identities and a multiplicity of sexualities that would not have existed otherwise.

    Extractions: Jump to: navigation search This project aims to gather an interested group of individuals who will read and discuss texts by Michel Foucault. From the Wikipedia article Michel Foucault (IPA pronunciation: [miʃel fuko]; English-speakers' pronunciation varies) (October 15, 1926 – June 25, 1984) was a French philosopher. He held a chair at the Coll¨ge de France, which he gave the title "The History of Systems of Thought." His writings have had an enormous impact: Foucault's influence extends across the humanities and social sciences and into applied and professional areas of study. Foucault is known for his critical studies of various social institutions, most notably psychiatry, medicine, parameters of educational timeframes, and the prison system, and also for his work on the history of sexuality. His work concerning power and the relation between power and knowledge, as well as his ideas concerning "discourse" in relation to the history of Western thought, have been widely discussed and applied. His work is often described as postmodernist or post-structuralist by commentators and critics; during the 1960s, however, he was more often associated with the structuralist movement. Although he was initially happy with this description, he later emphasized his distance from the structuralist approach, and he always unequivocally rejected the 'post-structuralist' and 'postmodernist' labels.

In the Hebrew conception, God being a shepherd, the flock following him complies to his will, to his law. Christianity, on the other hand, conceived the shepherd-sheep relationship as one of individual and complete dependence. This is undoubtedly one of the points at which Christian pastorship radically diverged from Greek thought. If a Greek had to obey, he did so because it was the law, or the will of the city. If he did happen to follow the will of someone in particular (a physician, an orator, a pedagogue), then that person had rationally persuaded him to do so. And it had to be for a strictly determined aim: to be cured, to acquire a skill, to make the best choice. In Christianity, the tie with the shepherd is an individual one. It is personal submission to him. His will is done, not because it is consistent with the law, and not just as far as it is consistent with it, but, principally, because it is his will

    Extractions: Michel Foucault (1926 - 1984) by Jane Louis-Wood (Foucault is pronounced foo-coh, if you are concerned with impressing your mates) Foucault has been lauded as one of the foremost thinkers of the twentieth century. His work, a radical fusion of historical and philosophical investigation that confounds the claims of both disciplines to provide a rational, evolutionary framework for the human story, is passionately debated in his native France and has been revered - and reconfigured - by the humanities faculties of the principal American universities. Born in Poitiers and educated at the prestigious and fiercely competitive ENS (Ecole Normale Superieure) in Paris, his earlier works draw on the Hegelian tradition which dominated the intellectual climate of post-war France. From that tradition Foucault retains two key elements: the impulse to theorise and problematise the relationship between general history and the history of ideas, and a preoccupation with the human subject - how individuals are constituted as knowing, knowable and self-knowing beings. However, he clearly rejects from the same tradition the notion that history is a total process with a coherent overall meaning and progressive linear direction, and that the human subject can be effectively mapped by discrete or definitive sciences. "I wondered how it was that knowledge could have arisen, changed, developed and offered scientific theory new fields of observations and objects, and how scientific learning had been imported into it."

    Extractions: The Reckless Mind: Intellectuals in Politics Library Journal BOOKFORUM Reading Lolita in Tehran What Are the Iranians Dreaming About? Michel Foucault "They will never let go of us of their own will. No more than they did in Vietnam." I wanted to respond that they are even less ready to let go of you than Vietnam because of oil, because of the Middle East. Today they seem ready, after Camp David, to concede Lebanon to Syrian domination and therefore to Soviet influence, but would the United States be ready to deprive itself of a position that, according to circumstance, would allow them to intervene from the East or to monitor the peace? Will the Americans push the shah toward a new trial of strength, a second "Black Friday"? The recommencement of classes at the university, the recent strikes, the disturbances that are beginning once again, and next month's religious festivals, could create such an opportunity. The man with the iron hand is Moghadam, the current leader of the SAVAK. This is the backup plan, which for the moment is neither the most desirable nor the most likely. It would be uncertain: While some generals could be counted on, it is not clear if the army could be. From a certain point of view, it would be useless, for there is no "communist threat": not from outside, since it has been agreed for the past twenty-five years that the USSR would not lay a hand on Iran; not from inside, because hatred for the Americans is equaled only by fear of the Soviets.

    A primer to michel foucault, from reviews by John Haber of New York City art galleries and museums.  
    http://www.haberarts.com/foucault.htm
    
    Extractions: in New York City What helped me most to think about Michel Foucault was a query that I myself had. I knew that people often associate artistic creativity with madness, and I wondered if the idea had a history. I was referred to R. Wittkower's fine book, Under the Sign of Saturn The Artist (with the ostentatious capitals) it helped to create. I was looking for the cultural history of an idea, discovering that my needs had long been surprisingly neglected. Philosophers of the past tended to take concepts as a given, waiting to be applied to burst the veil of everyday lives. Philosophers of the present had tried to analyze ideas, but history seemed unnecessary baggage on top of right and wrong. Historians had little truck with ideas as artifacts amid the stream of important events. Yet the history of ideas matters to an understanding of events, and that was precisely the field that Foucault nurtured. He said he was pursuing the "genealogy" of an idea, and he might be said to have given a founding push to the hot trend of "cultural studies" or "the New Historicism" in literary criticism. He is closely paralleled by the British-born historian Stephen Toulmin, who placed Newton and Descartes in context of half-forgotten political turmoil. However, he did not really match what Americans had called philosophy sociology , or history before him.
