[Foucault-L] Surveiller Et Punir translation

[Tamir Sorek <tsorek@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Does anyone can help me to solve the following puzzle: Why did Michel 
Foucault ask to translate the title of his book "Surveiller Et Punir" to 
"Discipline and Punishment" in English, instead of "Surveillance and 
Punishment"? Did he think that his French title was misunderstood?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Tamir Sorek
