He would have probably paraphrased Lacan and say that M. Foucault who believe
himself to be M. Foucault is just as as much caught in a phantasy as any other "pauvre diable" who believe
himself to be M. Foucault, the only difference is the set of power/knowledge relations that support one
phantasy and lock up the other.
