Paul,
the third term is "acte"
A little trivia, in case you're interested:
I remember being at the presentation given by Hubert Dreyfus, and he
discussed the origins of the cover of this book. He said that during a
conversation with Foucault, Foucault had become quite animated, and drawn
all over the board in his (Dreyfus', I think) office. After the
conversation (which I think is the 1983 interview on the second edition),
Dreyfus took a photograph of the scribblings, and this later became the
cover of the book.
The details of this aren't very clear, as this was a while ago. But I
think this is largely correct.
