Offered in 0 more formatsMichel Foucault is generally considered one of the most brilliant and influential philosophers of the twentieth century, yet much of his writing has remained unpublished and/or unavailable in English. It is only recently that the French publisher Gallimard issued Dis et Ecrits, the first complete collection of everything Foucault published outside of his monographs. Ethics, the first of three volumes in the collection, provides a lucid and accessible overview of Foucault's work. Included in the first section of this volume are his groundbreaking analyses of penal institutions, psychiatry, "biopolitics," and the modern subject. A second section contains interviews, along with Foucault's key writings on ethics. Winner of the Choice Outstanding Academic Book Award.
The French publication Dits and +crits, 1954-1988 (1994, +ditions Gallimard, Paris) comprises more than 3,000 pages collecting all of Foucault's published texts not included in his books prefaces, introductions, presentations, interviews, articles, interventions, lectures, and so on. This selection is the first in a projected series of selections in English translation. It contains the famous course summaries Foucault submitted to the CollFge de France each year from 1970 to 1982, providing a lucid overview of his work during this time, including his groundbreaking analyses of penal institutions, psychiatry, "biopolitics," and the modern subject.
