In Season 2 - our FOUNDATIONS series - we’ll examine European philosophers from the 17th through the 19th centuries, to see how their views have shaped and defined our own… whether we realize it or not.

Today, we have a quick(esque) episode on Michel Foucault, who is not at all a "foundational" philosopher, but who set the tone for the work of Bernard Cohn, who we’ll be talking about on our next two episodes.

Also, on this episode, I try my hand at a bit of lite-hearted banter to kick off the show. Lite-hearted banter is strangely difficult for me, it seems. But perhaps it’s a matter of choosing better subjects to bant upon.
