Biopolitica e libertà. Dieci capitoli su Foucault
Come è possibile esercitare la libertà nel tempo della "biopolitica"? Ha ancora un senso parlare di libertà quando il potere è diventato "biopotere" (alla lettera: un "potere sulla vita") impadronendosi delle attitudini, delle capacità, degli affetti e perfino dei nostri pensieri più intimi e privati? Quando cioè le stesse categorie del “pubblico” e del “privato” hanno perduto ogni ragione di essere, proprio perché il "biopotere" produce - come dichiara insistentemente Foucault - il "soggetto" stesso? Sono alcuni degli interrogativi che fanno da guida a questo studio e a cui l'autore tenta di rispondere esaminando l'intera opera di Foucault. La questione della libertà viene interpretata come il problema che ne orienta le tappe e ne dirige gli sviluppi, dagli scritti dedicati alle "relazioni di potere" a quelli finali sull'etica degli antichi. La biopolitica costituisce la situazione attuale, il contesto e lo sfondo significante che spinge Foucault a ridefinire il concetto tradizionale (filosofico-giuridico) di libertà in direzione di un'inedita concettualizzazione etico-politica di "pratiche di libertà" disperse, contingenti, irriducibilmente plurali.

Some scattred brownspots. � First appearance of thispaper in which the authors demonstrated importent similarities between sound - and lightwaves and that interference takes place between rays of light of different wavelenghts thus giving considerably evidence for the wave theory of light.<br><br>"By analyzing the white light source into simpler constituents by means of a spectroscope Fizeau and Foucault were able to observe fringes produced by interfering light rays with a difference of travel equal to more than 7000 wavelenghts thus showing hat light waves like sound waves remain geometrically constant over a large number of periods. But light waves because of their transverse vibrations are more complex than sound waves. Light can assume different forms of planes of vibration as well as different intensities. Using the same spectroscopic apparatus as in the preceeding experiment Fizeau and Foucault observed the interaction of two rays produced by passing a single polarized ray through a birefringent crystal. In this case instead of obtaining alternating bands of light and dark they obtained bands of light periodcally polarized in different planes of vibration."DSB V p. 19. unknown

FIZEAU ARMAND HIPPOLYTE LOUIS; FOUCAULT JEAN BERNARD LEON
Sur une experience relative a la vitesse de propagation de la lumiere Fizeau. WITH: Determination experimentale de la vitesse de la lumiere; parallaxe du Soleil AND description des appareils Foucault
Paris: Bachelier Mallet-Bachelier 1849. First edition. original wrappers. Fine. FIRST EDITION of the report of Fizeau's famous experiment to determine the speed of light the first accurate results obtained from a terrestrial experiment. WITH: FIRST EDITION of his rival FOUCAULT'S refinement two papers resulting in a measurement of the speed of light within 0.6% of the present-day value. FINE COPIES IN ORIGINAL VOLUME WRAPPERS. "By 1849 Fizeau had developed his own method for measuring the speed of light in air. On the peak of a hill he set up a light source and a spinning gear arranged so that the light would shine through the gear's teeth. As it spun the gear would alternately block and unblock the light so that it would flash. On another hilltop 5 miles 8 km away he positioned a mirror that reflected the light back to its source. Fizeau spun the gear very fast so that light passing through one gap in the gear's teeth would travel to the mirror bounce back and reenter through the next gap. By using a timer he was able to determine the amount of time it took light to travel 10 miles 16 km--the distance between the two hilltops. "Fizeau arrived at the figure of 195615 miles 315000 km per second--a number slightly higher by about 5% than that obtained by astronomical means 192600 mps but certainly far more accurate than any previous terrestrial method had yielded. The modern figure for the speed of light is approximately 186000 miles 299700 km per second. "In 1862 Foucault outdid his former friend Fizeau when he used Charles Wheatstone's revolving mirror to obtain an improved value for the speed of light in air. Foucault's experiements were conducted from the 'La Salle de Meridienne' in the Paris Observatory. His value of 298000 km/s about 185000 miles/sec is only 0.6% different from the currently accepted value and more importantly for Foucault a considerable improvemnet on the efforts of his arch rival Hippolyte Fizeau" Stefan Hughes Catchers of the Light. "Foucault's first experiment carried out in 1850 and written up in full in his doctoral thesis of 1853 was purely comparative; he announced no numerical values until 1862. Then with an improved apparatus he was able to measure precisely the velocity of light in air. This result significantly smaller than Fizeau's of 1849 changed the accepted value of solar parallax and vindicated the higher value which Le Verrier had calculated from astronomical data. Foucault's turning-mirror apparatus was the basis for the later determinations of the velocity of light by A. A. Michelson and Simon Newcomb" Dictionary of Scientific Biography.

Foucault
Madness and Civilization
Atlantic Publishers & Distributors P Ltd 2012. Softcover. New. In Madness And Civilization the author traces how the mentally ill were treated in different periods of European History. From the fear and fascination shown towards the mad in the Renaissance to the modern psychiatric treatment. In the Renaissance period madness was looked upon as a fall from divine grace yet these people were also perceived as possessing a sort of wisdom elusive to sane people. During the ‘Classical Age’ of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the mad were looked on as a sort of affliction upon the society. During this period these people were grouped along with other ‘undesirables’ like beggars debtors and dissidents. The author views this as the outcome of industrialization urban culture and the idea that society had to be free from contamination by these negative elements. These people including the mentally ill were perceived as having deliberately chosen their fate because of moral defects. They were confined chained up harassed and kept in isolation from the rest of the society. During the nineteenth century another shift occurred. The mentally ill were separated from other delinquents. Attempts were made to cure their madness though the methods applied were dubious. The harsh treatment of the mad during the previous centuries was toned down. Yet these people were still viewed as being morally defective. They were kept imprisoned in mental asylums where their caretakers used subtle means to coerce them. Attempts were made to appeal to feelings of guilt and religious sentiments. They were treated as morally deficient who could be cured by constant discipline and chastisement. Madness And Civilization examines the complex relationship between madness and the larger society the shifting views and treatments of madness. Even with the changing views the author observes that the mentally ill were still subject to harassment and misunderstanding. The book also examines the emergence of a doctor-patient relationship between the mentally ill and their doctors leading to the development of Freud’s concepts of psychoanalysis. Printed Pages: 224.

Foucault
Mental Illness and Psychology
University of California Press Jul 1992. Revised. Paperback. Foucault gives a vivid and short introduction on the psycho-sociological roots of Mental Illness. These are supported by small contemporary and historical examples which give the reader a critical and detached view of Mental Illness in Society. Comprehensible due to its clear written style this book enhances curiosity into the subject of the construction of society and its diversities. Foucault provides an interesting explanation of the relation between Illness and Psychology. University of California Press paperback
