تاریخ فرهنگی پس از فوکو

Michel Foucault was both a historian and a maker of culture. Despite his early death, he left an imposing and dazzling oeuvre that has furnished several disciplinary fields, sociology and criminology among them, with a new conceptual vocabulary and an agenda of new research to be conducted. Subsequently he has been severely scrutinized by scholars of the disciplines in and around which he worked, yet the real significance of his personality and work lie beyond disciplinary boundaries and even beyond the issue whether in specific instances he was right or wrong. Like Nietzsche, his adopted predecessor, he will probably be remembered most vividly as a great gadfly who questioned central assumptions in Western culture. His achievements may be problematic and destined to remain controversial, yet his ideas have changed the ways scholars of cultural history and interpretive social scientists approach such issues as discourse theory, theory of knowledge, Eros, technologies of the Self and the Other, punishment and prisons, and asylums and madness. Dr. Neubauer has here assembled a collection of papers by historians, literary scholars, and philosophers, grouped not by discipline but under general, trans disciplinary rubrics. Contributors address the whole range of Foucault's oeuvre, to explain its implications, to criticize its limitations and weaknesses, and above all to exploit the rich suggestiveness of its agenda. All of the major controversial aspects of Foucauldian cultural history are broached in these papers: among them the position of the subject, the fusion of power and knowledge, sexuality, and historical structures and changes. Illustrations and case studies are drawn from antiquity, the Renaissance, and the nineteenth century, on both sides of the Atlantic. The breadth of the undertaking makes this collection suitable for seminars and graduate courses in various departments. CONTENTS Introduction. Part I. Modes of the Subject in Cultural History. 1.

Bibliography The essays in this volume have been reprinted from Arcadia: Zeitschrlft filr Allgemeine und Ve18leichende Literaturwissenschaft, @1998, Walter de Gruyter. Both as historian and maker of culture, Foucault infused numerous disciplines of study with a new conceptual vocabulary and an agenda for future research. His ideas have called central assumptions in Western culture into question and altered the ways in which scholars and social scientists approach such issues as discourse theory, theory of knowledge, Eros, technologies of the Self and Other, punishment and prisons, and asylums and madness. The contributors to this volume indicate Foucault's achievements and the suggestive power of his work, as well as his methodological weaknesses, historical inaccuracies, and ambiguities. Above all, they attempt to show how one can use Foucault to go beyond him in opening new approaches to cultural history. Though comprehensiveness was not attempted, their essays broach the major controversial aspects of Foucauldian cultural history--the position of the subject, the fusion of power and knowledge, sexuality, the historical structures and changes--and they explicitly analyze them with respect to antiquity, the Renaissance, and the nineteenth century. In this collection, Neubauer presents analyses by historians, literary scholars, and philosophers of the entire, transdisciplinary range of Foucault's oeuvre, emphasizing the rich suggestiveness of its agenda. The breadth of the undertaking makes it suitable for seminars and graduate courses in numerous departments.
