        Michel Foucault

        Palgrave 2010

        ISBN 9781403986665

      2. A new translation of lectures Foucault gave in France in 1982–1983 in which he presented a rereading of ancient philosophy focusing on the notion of ‘truth-telling,’ which he argues is the lost and forgotten core of the ethical basis for a functioning democracy.
