Hey Sandy! I was just reading the foucault derrida
debate over madness and civ. Now, i don't know if
you've read this, but i assume you have. Anyway,
it strikes me that the issue at stake for both
foucault and derrida is how to speak the unspeakable
as it were. My understanding is that derrida says it's
through philosophy, while foucault questions this
privilege. So, i just thought i'd put thus thought out
there to see if anyone had any ideas. i'm going to think
about this some more. Later, Drew
