Description

Convulsing Bodies: Religion and Resistance in Foucault

This book offers a fresh perspective on Michel Foucault's thought by exploring his engagement with religion, particularly its impact on human bodies. Mark Jordan argues that Foucault's work is not just about critique, but also about the ways in which speech shapes our bodies.

By examining Foucault's use of religious rhetoric and his experiments with writing, Jordan reveals a complex thinker who plays with his audiences and challenges totalizing systems. This book provides a nuanced understanding of Foucault's ideas and their relevance to contemporary debates.
