Re: Books and papers on Foucault and Heidegger

On Foucault and Heidegger, a principle source is indeed Dreyfus & Rabinow
(though most of the references to Heidegger were removed just before
publication, hence Foucault's rather puzzling endorsement). Dreyfus' article
on Being & Power is in Timothy Armstrong (ed.) Michel Foucault Philosopher.
See also Rabinow in the Cambridge Companion (ed Gutting) and his
introduction to Essential Works I (which show why Dreyfus & Rabinow now
disagree). Also useful is Allan Megill, Prophets of Extremity; Charles
Scott, A Question of
Ethics, and an article in the new issue of Radical Philosophy No 91 by
Michael Schwartz.

But really, that isn't very much and a lot of it is not terribly useful.
This is despite Foucault's comment on Heidegger as the 'essential
philosopher'. As some of you know, this link is a principle theme of my
soon to be submitted thesis.

Best wishes
