It’s a new experience to read Foucault in a setting where he consistently reflects on himself, comments he has received, and new ideas which are still formulating. As the ending of this book mentions, it’s not actually a book, and is instead a plea to a problem, urgently looking for solutions.
I also particularly think that the theorization of the “barbarian” is worth dwelling on. And while it may not be something I can directly apply, parts of it should be used to talk about us gender outlaws. What is a “trans barbarian”?
