Michel Foucault (1926-84). Celebrated French thinker and activist who challenged people's assumptions about care of the mentally ill, gay rights, prisons, the police and welfare.
When one defines "order" as a sorting of priorities, it becomes beautifully clear as to what Foucault is doing here. With virtuoso showmanship, he weaves an intensely complex history of thought. He dips into literature, art, economics and even biology in The Order of Things, possibly one of the most significant, yet most overlooked, works of the twentieth century. Eclipsed by his later work on power and discourse, nonetheless it was The Order of Things that established Foucault's reputation as an intellectual giant. Pirouetting around the outer edge of language, Foucault unsettles the surface of literary writing. In describing the limitations of our usual taxonomies, he opens the door onto a whole new system of thought, one ripe with what he calls "exotic charm". Intellectual pyrotechnics from the master of critical thinking, this book is crucial reading for those who wish to gain insight into that odd beast called Postmodernism, and a must for any fan of Foucault.

今天總算花瞭二十多天把《詞與物》的英文版讀完瞭,算是邊對照著這本新版的中文版《詞與物》邊看完的。就算我已經認真讀過一遍02年中文版的《詞與物》,但是再次讀完還是花費瞭巨大的時間和精力,可見這本書是讀來極為費力的。 我就不討論書中內容瞭,因為要透徹討論的話,其實...
評分【貼張舊文,在福柯同誌的客廳占個座位。】 話說公元二十世紀的某一天,巴黎,法蘭西學院的老花花公子福柯先生點燃煙鬥(其實我並不知道福柯先生是否抽煙鬥,待考),坐進書桌前靠背深陷的搖椅上,把身體調整到最舒服的角度,讓脊椎處於受力最小的靜力學狀態,他悠悠地吐齣幾...
評分《詞與物》是福柯最為晦澀難懂的一本書,莫偉民的翻譯也延續瞭這種晦澀。 現代知識型領域的三個維度分彆是數學與物理學、語言、生命和財富以及哲學反思。人文科學有三個模式:生物學、經濟學與語文學。 《詞與物》一書從語言齣發到哲學,對人文科學進行瞭考古學與係譜學的考察...
評分The human life is full of differences. At the same time, there are resemblances to be identified among this hectic amount of differences. Foucault finds that resemblances among the differences tend to be rationalized, and to be formulated according to the r...

Foucault is insanely smart. The book traces the development of knowledge, covering the nature of life, the function of wealth , and the organization of signs. And he boldly raises and answers the fundamental question of what makes us human (though he can be hard in that you have to read to the end to know what exactly is his thesis).
評分不高興
評分讀得好苦啊
評分Foucault in 1966 --- less an archaeologist than an architect, more of a poet than a genealogist
評分很難說讀懂瞭多少,期待以後重讀進一步收獲。大體意思是體會到瞭,以語言為中心綫索對於episteme在三個時期劇變的闡發;但三個領域(語言、生命、財富)具體如何平行,還有福柯畫的那個table,還有最後部分講science of human的東西,都確實沒把握住。
