Collected here, these previously unpublished texts reveal a Foucault who undertakes an analysis of language and experience detached from their historical constraints. Three issues predominate: the experience of madness across societies; madness and language in Artaud, Roussel, and Baroque theater; and structuralist literary criticism. Not only do these texts pursue concepts unique to this period such as the \"extra-linguistic,\" but they also reveal a far more complex relationship between structuralism and Foucault than has typically been acknowledged.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michel Foucault\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 022677483X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226774831\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2023","brand":"Michel Foucault","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44076437274879,"sku":"9780226774831","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3f8f036-0eb5-41e3-aca3-32116585345d.jpg?v=1685464987","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/madness-language-literature-michel-foucault-9780226774831","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
