Although Foucault was criticized for his new historicism approaches, there is a sort of freedom a critic receives by looking at a text, history, or circumstance the way that Foucault did. A reductive answer to Foucaultian questions might be “there is no truth.†This makes critics uncomfortable who want to speak their truth. . . Anyway, this book will let you get to know Foucault on a more personal level than what the professors in your universities will.
Good addition to the seriesThe drawings are very effective and the descriptions of Foucault's triumphs as well his dubious stunts are economically stated
This book divulges much, including perhaps way too many personal sexuality issues...There should be more structure in this intro in terms of concepts, to help those new and not so to better take in what they came for--an ordered historical perspective on the development and support for his key ideas and works. Foucault is not easy to digest because he is so scatological. How he came to be seen as qualified to teach on so many diverse topics (literature and psychology, as well as philosophy a d history...?!) is one example that never gets clarified in the least. Nor do his central ideas, really. What are they? I still feel helpless to really account for what I know of Foucault after college courses on his key readings, and now this book. Does anyone feel confident in their knowledge of Foucault? I at least learned that Foucault was politically active, which goes against the common wisdom of the neo-Marxist and feminist cliques. That said, this intro did not introduce me to what Foucault was seeking to do, ultimately.
Nice try but nothing can make this guy simple.
Great book and deal.
Like all graphic guides, great. You think it a bit childish, with comic strip pictures, but its really helpful
This short volume is worthy of a five star rating. This is so because this is a very excellent work. There is no doubt about this. It does not abstain from looking at his particular sexual perversions. It is not that he had them, but that they played such a unique part of his prices philosophies, and this book boldly goes there.This volume is a biography starting with birth to his death. It addresses his major works which are embedded in context to life experiences and his life's timeline. Two of his major publications, History of Madness and Madness and Civilization, play a significant part of this present book. He also published a lot of research he did on prisons.Another area of focus for Foucault was sexuality. Over time he wrote a three volume set, The History of Sexuality. His research was not limited to just reading in a library, but included personal "Research" on at least five continents!Being an introduction to Foucault, this publication can be read by the general public, a beginning philosophy student, or an intermediate one.
While Foucault has become a popular icon to postmodernists, his personal life and political judgements continue to offend, shock, and sometimes amuse conservative intellectuals. This concise biography provides brief summaries of his most important intellectual works, introduces some of his key concepts, and acknowledges the profoundly deluded political predictions of this controversial French philosopher. If the personal is political, then Foucault's private life as a hyper-sexual gay hedonist and seducer of young boys - and death from AIDS - can be seen as the logical consequences of his peculiar belief systems where there is no objectivity and everything is subjective.This comic book biography explores the paradox of Foucault, one of the most influential modern philosophers, right from the first page. "Should we look at the life of the man himself, who as a boy wanted to be a goldfish, became a philosopher and historian, political activist, leather queen, bestseller, tireless campaigner for dissident causes? What about his literary skill, combined with painstaking historical inquiry, his excellence as a pasta cook, captivating lecturing style, passion for sex with men, occassional drug-taking, barbed sense of humour, competitiveness, fierce temper - and the fact that he came from a family of doctors and dearly loved his mother?" The cartoon of the bald intellectual includes the caption/quote from Foucault: "Do not ask who I am and do not ask me to remain the same." Fairness and multidimensional from the beginning.While many academics will inevitably find this introduction too brief and too superficial, this thin and accessible book draws readers into Foucault's ideas, passions, and lives. Far more lively and engaging than than most secondary sources for undergraduate philosophy students, this black and white, adult comic book provides a comfortable entry point into some of the great intellectual debates of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It also delights in contradictions and paradoxes.Did you know that the man who subtley explored the connections between order and brutality promoted the new Islamic Government in Iran in 1979? How could a gay, leftist western intellectual support religious fanatics? "An Islamic government cannot restrict people's rights because it is bound by religious duty," claimed Foucault to reporters while visiting Tehran. "The people will know what is right." The harsh objective reality of public executions and stonings -including women who refused to wear the proscribed veil- soon silenced Foucault. The authors cover this embarrassing situation with an admirable directness on p.79. His other questionable political crusades are also examined in a sympathetic, yet critical light.This thin book, digestible in a few hours, would make an excellent companion text for both undergraduate and graduate philosophy students confronted with reading a Foucault tome. It would be a valuable addition to college libraries and belongs on the bookshelves of postmodernists - and Foucault's critics.
