Some nonsense I wouldn't have said and many detours I wouldn't have made, when I tried to not be deterred, while the Frankfurt School had opened up the paths." [My translation of the German given by Wiggershaus] The words are taken from a conversation between Foucault and a certain Mr./Mrs. Raulet. In German, it seems to have been published in 1983, under a title which translates as 'At which price does reason tell the truth?'. This might not be the English title, though. But I'm sure that around here there are some people fond enough of Foucault bibliography to let us know. Bye Tom Munich, Germany
