Their publication marks a turning point in the reception of Foucault: he can no longer be read as before. In this course, he analyzes how a discourse of scientific pretension—medicine, psychiatry, psychopathology, sociology—is inserted into the penal discourse of 19th-century France. Thus begins a research that will last for years about the role of legal forms in the constitution of truthful speech, revealing the profound unity of Foucault’s project, which always had a single object: truth. Truth is born in conflicts, the competition of claims that find in the rituals of judicial judgment the possibility of determining who is right and who is wrong. Within ancient Greece itself, different legal forms succeed and confront each other, different ways of separating true from false, in which the disputes of sophists and philosophers will soon be inscribed. In Oedipus Rex, Sophocles stages the power inherent in the forms of truthful speech, which establish power as much as they overthrow it. Contrary to Freud, who made Oedipus the drama of an unconfessable sexual desire, Foucault shows that the tragedy articulates the relationships of truth, power, and law. The history of truth is the history of tragedy. Michel Foucault deepens here the tragic vision of truth inaugurated by Nietzsche and, in a subterranean dialogue with Deleuze, wrests it from the Heideggerian reading. Who will dare to speak, after this course, of a skeptical Foucault?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ediciones Akal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57584354361688,"sku":"AMZ9788446042037","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/5541323485195.jpg?v=1782689738","url":"https:\/\/www.plasticbooks.uk\/en\/products\/lecciones-sobre-la-voluntad-de-saber-curso-del-college-de-france-1970-1971-segui-9788446042037","provider":"Plastic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
