| Sumario: | This text is a review of the book Foucault: pensador transversátil, written by Laerthe de Moraes Abreu Junior. The work gathers essays about several themes and concepts that are present in Foucault’s thinking, since the most known ones, like humanism, ethics, violence, subjection, and power, until those that scholars use to study with less frequency, which is the case of his writings about arts, cinema, literature, and music. The treatment given to these themes reveals how behind their pulverization and the apparent disconnection between them there is a work characterized by the versatility and transversality of a thinker dedicated to comprehending how human beings have become what they are. |
