The relationship between two distinct periods in Michel Foucault's
work is the starting point for this book. In "Truth and Power," an
interview Foucault gave in 1976, he states that to create a new
politics of truth is an intellectual's main task. In this book,
Priscila Piazentini Vieira analyzes Foucault's study on ancient
culture and courage of truth in the 1980s as his main contribution
to our construction of a new politics of truth, much diverse from
modernity's prevailing understanding of it grounded on the will to
knowledge. Furthermore, she analyzes Foucault's militant practice
and his GIP experience from a corpus constructed by papers,
courses, interviews, and books written by the philosopher between
the 1970s and 1980s. By clearly linking Foucault's work on to his
own militant activity, the book also aims to develop an original
definition of the intellectual at the crossroad of political
engagement, the production of knowledge, and the manifestation of
the truth.
