Thanks to Colin and Denoix for details of recent French/British media
interest.
A question/request for references. Anybody know of discussions of the
following three collaborative works in which Foucault was involved:-
- Francois Fourquet & Lion Murard, Les equipments du pouvoir: Villes,
Territoires et equipements collectifs, Paris: Union Generale d'Editions,
1976 [originally an issue of Recherches, 1973, two dialogues translated in
Foucault: Live].
- Michel Foucault, Blandine Barrett Kriegel, Anne Thalamy, Francois Beguin
& Bruno Fortier, Les machines a guerir (aux origines de l'hopital moderne),
Bruxelles: Pierre Mardaga, 1979 [originally 1976].
- Michel Foucault (ed.) Politiques de l'habitat (1800-1850), Paris: CORDA,
1977.
There are some brief references in the biographies, but apart from that? I
can't recall any more than passing references elsewhere, but would
appreciate any references - English, French or German particularly useful,
but really any language refs would be worth knowing about.
They are all very interesting works, and I am writing about them at the
moment, but don't want to claim they have been understudied if they have
been discussed elsewhere.
The work for Les machines a guerir was the product of two research grants
1. Genealogy of Collective Equipments (CERFI and DGRST), headed by Foucault
2. Politics of space in Paris at the end of the Ancien Regime, led by Bruno
Fortier (CORDA/DGRST)
I have seen references to Genealogie des equipments collectifs being
published as a separate volume, perhaps under the title Les equipements
sanitaires, apparently with CERFI 1976, but have never seen a copy. Anyone
shed any light?
There is a book La politique de l'espace parisien (a la fin de l'Ancien
Regime), CORDA 1975 that is the result of the second contract. I've been
unable to locate a copy. Any information available?
Many thanks for any help
