Foucault on history: "The Order of Things"

Foucault claimed that there were limits to what people could actually think, depending on what period of history they lived in. Agree?

The book I am discussing in this video is: Foucault, Michel (2002) The Order of Things. Routledge, London/New York. Original title: Les mots et les choses. First published, 1966.

Recommended reading: Rabinow, Paul (1991) The Foucault Reader, London: Penguin Books

My name is Jostein, I live in Norway, and work at Volda University College. Currently, I am doing a PhD in history. As part of my theoretical education (and because I like it), I read classics of history and historiography. In this channel, I hope to share my learning with you.
