Occasionally quite odd to read - due in part to the nature of transcribing lectures and publishing them as books, and in part to the curiosities of translation (I've learned many mostly useless new words in my native language, and shudder at the thought of doing the same in French) - but absolutely fascinating. I've brought these ideas up in conversation several times already, and have been pleased by how easily understood they were, despite Foucault and his translator insisting on my learning words like etiology and concupiscence and onanism.
