<html><div style='background-color:'><P><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman, Times, Serif">hi andrew. my name is cezar tigno from the philippines. you can begin with foucault's <STRONG><EM>Power/Knowledge </EM></STRONG>(1980), but much of the discourses on language and power today are being negotiated within a matrix of disciplines and theoretical perspectives that thrive on foucault's formulations on language, power and discourse. you can look for norman fairclough's <STRONG><EM>Critical Discourse Analysis: The Critical Study of Language</EM></STRONG> and robert hodge and gunther kress's <STRONG><EM>Social Semiotics.</EM></STRONG> there is also an interesting argument between foucault and derrida in lois mcnay's <STRONG><EM>Foucault: An Introduction</EM></STRONG>, where derrida critique<SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Book Antiqua'; FONT-SIZE: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt"><FONT size=3>s <FONT face="Times New Roman, Times, Serif">foucault's <EM><STRONG>Madness and Civil</STRONG></EM><STRONG><EM>ization,</EM></STRONG> which for derrida "constitutes a 'juridical imposition' of order and rationality upon the realm of madness,"</FONT></FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> thereby invalidating foucalt's use of the 'language of reason' for the study of insanity, or what derrida dubs 'the archaeology of silence. foucault refutes derrida by accusing him of the failure to understand discursive practices as socio-political events, and that he constricts " 'discursive practices' to 'textual traces' and thereby affirms a historically well-determined little pedagogy." sounds interesting, right? hope this helps.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></P>

<DIV></DIV>>hello, my name is andrew smith. I'm a philosophy/linguistics student in
<DIV></DIV>>michigan.
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>I have a quick question for the group:
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>I'm currently working on a research paper dealing with language/power
<DIV></DIV>>issues in levinas, foucault, and derrida. Can anyone direct me to a good
<DIV></DIV>>source (primary or secondary) as a starting point for a Foucaultian
<DIV></DIV>>(sp?) view on this subject?
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>thanks.
<DIV></DIV>>
