This is an important collection of essays examining and promoting
Foucault's influence on present-day philosophy, in both the
analytic and Continental philosophical traditions."Foucault's
Legacy" brings together the work of eight Foucault specialists in
an important collection of essays marking the 25th anniversary of
Foucault's death. Focusing on the importance of Foucault's most
central ideas for present-day philosophy, the book shows how his
influence goes beyond his own canonical tradition and linguistic
milieu. The essays in this book explore key areas of Foucault's
thought by comparing aspects of his work with the thought of a
number of major philosophers, including Nietzsche, Heidegger,
Rorty, Hegel, Searle, Vattimo and Williams. Crucially the book also
considers the applicability of his central ideas to broader issues
such as totalitarianism, religion, and self-sacrifice. Presenting a
fresh and exciting vision of Foucault as a philosopher of enduring
influence, the book shows how important Foucault remains to
philosophy today.
