From mreeves@chass.utoronto.ca Sat Feb 1 14:09:12 1997 Date: Sat, 1 Feb 1997 16:08:40 -0500 (EST) From: Margaret Reeves To: MatFem@csf.colorado.edu Subject: Second attempt (fwd) Dear MATFEM list: I am resending a message that I attempted to send last week. The message went astray and was bounced back to me from another list serve. As I have no way of knowing whether the list members received it, I am sending it a second time. Please accept my apologies if you did in fact receive this message last Tuesday. Margaret Reeves, Toronto, Ontario ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 28 Jan 1997 14:11:48 -0500 (EST) From: Margaret Reeves To: MatFem@csf.colorado.edu Subject: Re: Hennessy discussion Dear List: I have been reading the recent discussion with great interest, and also in the hope that one query I had regarding the discussion following Sara Lennox's paper might be cleared up. I am referring to the comment Sara Lennox makes in her paper regarding Rosemary Hennessy's criticism of Foucault and his "inability to explain the relationship between discursive and non-discursive practices and his lack of a theory of causality" (Jan. 4/97) After reading volume one of _The History of Sexuality_, I too share what almost amounts to a sense of frustration with Foucault's unwillingness to expand and extend his discussion of how we have historically perceived sexuality with some concrete examples of how this actually affected the lives of ordinary people, and most especially women. It almost seems at times as if the idea and ideologies of sexuality are of more concern to Foucault than actual practices, although the text is supposed to be a "history." Having said all this, though, I am only too aware that I still have lots of learn about Foucault's work, and Ann Ferguson's reply to the list (Jan 7/97) suggests that I may indeed be quite wrong in my interpretation of Foucault. Prof. Ferguson claims that Foucault "clearly distinguishes between discursive and non-discursive practices." But where does he do this? And does he make this distinction clearly enough to address the concerns of materialist feminists? Although my questions focus more precisely on Foucault than on Hennessy's work, I do think that it is relevant to the subsequent discussion on the list where several others have expressed concern about the non-materiality of the discussion. I think the one thing that seems to connect all of us from our various disciplines is this compelling need to ground our theory in a material reality (no matter how mediated and interpellated that reality may be). Would anyone on the list be willing to help me out with this question about Foucault and non-discursive practices? With thanks, Margaret Reeves, Graduate Student, Dept of English, U of Toronto, mreeves@chass.utoronto.ca From ferguson@philos.umass.edu Wed Feb 5 06:04:31 1997 Date: Wed, 05 Feb 1997 08:03:57 -0500 (EST) From: Ann Ferguson Subject: Re: MATFEM digest 89 <"MatFem@csf.colorado.edu"@Feb> To: MatFem@csf.colorado.edu 2/5 Re Margaret Reeves query on Foucault: Foucault distinguishes between discursive and non-discursive practices in The Archaeology of Knowledge, his book on methodology, and also in , his book on prisons, he is pretty clear that although the disciplines of penology and psychiatry partially create the objects of their knowledge (viz. the criminal and the insane) it is also the disciplinary practices of the body in the prison regime and the asylum (cf also Madness and Civilization) that make "the soul the prison of the body". However, it is true that Foucault is slippery, and maddening, and often changes course. But History of Sexuality, v. 1 was meant to be only an introduction to a whole set of further volumes (6 were planned in all, of which only 3 were written) which were to give much more specific historical reporting of sexual practices and experiences. However, in volume 2 and 3 which go back to ancient Greece and the medieval period, it is usually agreed that Foucault changed course yet again and concentrated much more on treatises on sexuality than on actual practices. There was a whole other volume, The Prison of the Flesh, which was never translated, and I think might never have been published which I think might have been about the experiences of women hysterics. Does anyone know any more about this one?
