Dear Nick,
Foucault engages with Kant’s answer to this question mainly in four
texts, one dated 1978- called /Qu’est-ce que la critique? /(translated
in Italian as /Illuminismo e Critica, /Roma: Donzelli Editore, 1997) -
the other two are both dated 1984 and called ‘What is Englightenment?’,
one published in /The Foucault Reader,/ London : Penguin, 1984, p.
32,also online at
http://courses.essex.ac.uk/cs/cs101/foucault.htm, the
other in /Magazine Littéraire, /n. 207, the latter is an extract from
the course at Collège de France on 5 January 1983, translated in Italian
in /Archivio Foucault 3/, Milano: Feltrinelli, 1998. Other explicit
references to Kant’s reply to the question appear in Foucault’s
introduction to Canguilhem’s /The Normal and the Pathological /[1978],
published as ‘Life: Experience and Science’ in /Essential Works:
Aesthetics, / London : Penguin, 2000, p. 465.

I'm trying to find out the year in which Foucault's essay 'What is
Enlightenment?' was written. It appears in Ethics: Essential Works,
Vol. 1
and the Foucault Reader (ed. Paul Rabinow), but neither book appears
to give
a date for the essay. I know Foucault wrote several essays and
lectures on
this theme from as early as 1978 and as late as 1983, but I'm keen to
know
the precise year in which this particular piece was written. Can
anyone help
me on this one?
Thanks in advance,
Nick
