Lo scopo di questa "Scuola di Filosofie" è pratico: non troverai un riassunto delle migliori pensate degli autori che Maura Gancitano e Andrea Colamedici hanno scelto, ma la loro filosofia verrà messa alla prova nei campi di gioco del mondo esteriore e dei mondi interiori, nelle strade aperte della città e nelle dinamiche quotidiane della tua vita, perché è proprio nelle piazze e tra le persone che è nata e prosperata la filosofia. Maura Gancitano e Andrea Colamedici sono filosofi, scrittori e fondatori del progetto Tlon.

Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge—are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think. The Archaeology of Knowledge begins at the level of things aid and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal. A summing up of Foucault's own methodological assumptions, this book is also a first step toward a genealogy of the way we live now.

With vast erudition, Foucault cuts across disciplines and reaches back into seventeenth century to show how classical systems of knowledge, which linked all of nature within a great chain of being and analogies between the stars in the heavens and the features in a human face, gave way to the modern sciences of biology, philology, and political economy. The result is nothing less than an archaeology of the sciences that unearths old patterns of meaning and reveals the shocking arbitrariness of our received truths.

A “fascinating psychological thriller” (Baltimore Sun), this entrancing novel introduces Isserley, a female driver who scouts the Scottish Highlands for male hitchhikers with big muscles. She herself is tiny - like a kid peering up over the steering wheel. Scarred and awkward, yet strangely erotic and threatening, Isserley listens to her passengers as they open up to her, revealing clues about who might miss them should they disappear - and then she strikes. What happens to her victims next is only part of a terrifying reality.

Le testimonianze raccolte in questo libro, curato da Franco Basaglia e sua moglie Franca Ongaro e pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1975, costituiscono una sorta di ricerca a più voci sul ruolo dell'intellettuale e del tecnico come custodi di istituzioni violente. Attraverso l'approfondimento della funzione che regge le diverse ideologie scientifiche (la psichiatria, la storiografia, la psicologia, la sociologia, la criminologia, la medicina), questi contributi vogliono risalire alla funzione dell'ideologia quale strumento di conservazione del nostro sistema sociale.

Michel Foucault had already written extensively about medicine, madness, and prisons. But in the latter days of his career, he turned to the subject of sexuality, planning six volumes on the subject. He completed three before dying of an AIDS-related illness in 1984. Foucault's History of Sexuality Vol. 1 is a study of the evolution of cultural ideas about sex in the West since the end of the 17th century. Volume two looked at attitudes toward sex in ancient Greece; volume three investigated sex in ancient Rome.

When it first appeared in France, Anti-Oedipus was hailed as a masterpiece by some and "a work of heretical madness" by others. In it, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari set forth the following theory: Western society's innate herd instinct has allowed the government, the media, and even the principles of economics to take advantage of each person's unwillingness to be cut off from the group. What's more, those who suffer from mental disorders may not be insane, but could be individuals in the purest sense, because they are by nature isolated from society.

Im Frühsommer 1979 folgte der französische Star-Philosoph der Einladung eines jungen Dozenten namens Simeon Wade an dessen Hochschule in Kalifornien. Wade überredete sein Idol zu einem Death-Valley-Ausflug, inklusive LSD-Trip. Foucault selbst beschrieb diesen Tag, an dem er zum ersten Mal Erfahrungen mit der Droge machte, als "eine der wichtigsten Erfahrungen meines Lebens". Aus der Begegnung entstand eine langjährige Freundschaft, die sich in einem Briefwechsel niedergeschlagen hat.
