Truth in the Late Foucault
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-35726-6 (ISBN)
With the publication of the long-awaited volume 4 of the History of Sexuality: Confessions of the Flesh, the shape of the final Foucault is now brought into stark relief. As well as looking at ancient thought, the contributors explore Foucault’s work in relation to philosophers such as Gadamer, Heidegger, Derrida and Descartes. Foucault’s long-running and often contentious dialogue with psychoanalysis, on the relation between truth and the subject, is also examined. Each essay not only makes an important statement, but also is part of an interconnected arc of topics and understanding, covering both the ancient and modern periods. This book reveals that Foucault’s concern with antiquity raises questions deeply pertinent to the present moment.
Paul Allen Miller is Carolina Distinguished Professor of Classics and Comparative Literature at the University of South Carolina, USA, and Distinguished Guest Professor of English at Ewha Womans University, Republic of Korea. He is the author of Foucault’s Seminars on Antiquity: Learning to Speak the Truth (Bloomsbury Academic, 2021).
