RE: the child in Foucault's writing

Hi Cordelia

I recently read Castaneda, C. (2002) Figurations: Child, Bodies, Worlds,
Durham and London: Duke University Press which has some discussion of
Foucaults work on the child in it's final chapter

Best

Paul

hi cordelia,

René Scherer & Guy Hocquenghem may be of some interest for you:
'Co-ire - Album systématique de l'enfance', from 1976

there is a german translation
'Co-ire - Kindheitsmythen' (1977, trikont)

i don't know whether it's available in english.


bye

robert
