Opis

Michel Foucault s Force of Light offers a comprehensive, chronological reading of Foucault s published, and many unpublished, writings. James Bernauer claims that Foucault s achievement was to have fashioned a series of inquiries that makes it possible to question the activity of thought itself as an ethical practice. Foucault s ethic historicizes Kant s great questions on knowledge, obligation, and hope. He asks not "What can I know?" but rather "How have my questions been produced? How has the path of my knowing been determined?" Not "What ought I to know?" or "What may I hope for?" by "How have the parameters of my aspirations been defined?"
