Michel Foucault Psychological Effect
733 wordsIn "Panopticism" Michel Foucault describes the "practices of investigation" which in turn gave rise to a society that was under constant surveillance. Soon the society became a "disciplinary" society. Michel Foucault explains the study and effect of "Panopticism" which gave rise to many social sciences, which included sciences of man, or human behavior. It is evident that the effect of "Panopticism" had a great psychological effect on the disciplined society. Why would a society that encouraged ...

Time And Spiritual Transcendence In Crusoe
1,129 words... ensibilities, his queasy fastidiousness, wondering if this were a last rare token of civilization, or only a dead weight that he must be willing to shed before embarking upon a new way of life (Tournier 164). Its the essence of concern for another living being for this ugly birth putting of the self on the same level with another, the lack of need for control and domination, that probably most affects the mind of Crusoe; a mind that is, at this point, flipping ever more precariously between ...

Change The World Le Monde
3,118 wordsPublish and be damned Anomie is a disease which disproportionately afflicts French novelists. But even by the standards of the country that gave us Proust (a bedridden neurasthenic) and Sartre (the author of Nausea), Michel Houellebecq represents a particularly acute case. Houellebecq is Frances biggest literary sensation in 20 years and his suffering is enormous. To spend a weekend in his company is to become an unwitting participant in a sensory-deprivation experiment. External stimuli are red...

Emile Durkheim Michel Foucault
4,310 wordsThis paper is an attempt to do something that is probably not a good idea. I am going to try and take the ideas of some of the most prominent postmodern Sociological thinkers and mesh them together in some sort of coherent format. The purpose of this paper is to provide a starting place for people interested in postmodern Sociological thought. There really is no one all-encompassing postmodern theory, or a group of like-minded postmodern theorists. In fact this notion is antithetical to much of ...

Tao Te Ching Lao Tzu
3,397 wordsThe philosopher Michel Foucault and the ancient chinese sage Lao Tzu are separated by some twenty centuries. This seems to be of minor consequence, however, when it comes to the essence of their ideas. Both figures deal with concepts that explore the relationship between society and power. Specifically, the ways in which social bodies gain or lose power. In this paper, I will use their ideas to support my theory that equality is impossible in social interactions. These interactions may range in ...

Lot Of Times Bottom Of The Ocean
1,074 wordsJules Verne Going to moon, a balloon trip around the world, adventure under the sea, all this in the late 1800 s? All this was possible in the writings of Jules Verne. Jules Verne was born in Nantes on February 8, 1828. He had a vivid imagination and as a child, he often sailed down the Loire River with his brother. He always wondered about air and undersea travel. In the 1800 s, none of these advances were discovered. His father was a lawyer and wanted young Verne to be one, too. Jules was sent...
