I took a copy of "Discipline and Punish" by Foucault because of this channel, very nice content.

I have spent the last few weeks grappling with Foucault for an essay, and the pieces have only just started to fall into place in the last day or so. This is not unique to Foucault, but with this more than any other I have found old quotes and old notes being recontextualised. I watched this video a week ago and took quite a bit from it, but the conclusion didn't properly register. I had pursued a proper textbook definition of discourse on and off for weeks, but only in the last two hours or so do I "get it". To pursue and nail down a definition for discourse would not just be counterintuitive, it misunderstands postmodern thought itself. At least that is my understanding and if I'm wrong at this point I am totally fucked on this essay.

Right, postmodern----or perhaps modern? In any case, it is rather striking to realize how much Foucault's theory of discourse is indebted to the poetology of Raymond Roussel...

I'm so glad I stumbled upon this! I can't say things are much clearer than before I watched it, but I'm intrigued nonetheless!

Thank you! ...and if we are not able to make things clearer perhaps we can at least make things more plush ;-)

I Love your videos. It feels as if I am there, having an intriguing conversation while drinking a hot beverage. In other words, the functionality of your énoncés renders it possible for me to become part of your discursive network of power relations.

Is Agamben the one who counted the instances of Kuhn's use of the term "paradigm"?

@theoreticalpuppets 4 жыл бұрын

No, the Foucault puppet doesn't allude to Agamben... If you are interested look at: Masterman, Margaret : "The Nature of a Paradigm", in: Imre Lakatos und Alan Musgrave: Criticism and the Growth of Knowledge, 3rd ed., Cambridge University Press, 1970, pp.59-90
