---------------------- Original Message -------------------- Subject: Foucault & Critical Theory course web page: http://www.geocities.com/brbgc/Foucault_Critical_Theory_Course.html From: "Ric Brown" <brbrowniii@earthlink.net> Date: Sat, September 23, 2006 8:59 pm ------------------------------------------------------------- Greetings All, In Spring, I taught a course on the relationship between the Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School and the work of Michel Foucault. The final assignment for the course which was to take a specific group of texts that, unknown to them, I had selected almost at random form my shelves, and use these as an archive from which to generate a "History of the Subject." I thought the task impossible, and simply a lesson in the difficulty of undertaking rigorous work in Cultural Studies and Critical Theory, but the students did not agree, and the results were quite good. The course was so successful that I told the students that I would like to put up a page along with some of the papers from the final course assignment. They thought that this was a good idea, so I am keeping my promise, though a couple months late. The page is almost complete --- at least enough to put the page online. Right now there is only one paper up, but the rest will follow in the near future. The sidebar advertising should disappear in a couple of days. <http://www.geocities.com/brbgc/Foucault_Critical_Theory_Course.html> You can also click on the link from my homepage below. If you have time, take a look. Feel free to forward the link to anyone that might be interested.
