Dal pensiero del fuori all'ordine del discorso. Foucault e il problema della letteratura

In Foucault’s work “La pensée du dehors” marks a sort of border. In this short text, the value of literature and the value of fiction language are celebrated, contrasting them to the ratio of episteme. At the conference “Qu’est-ce-qu’un auteur?”, Foucault showed that a new bank is near. At the same year, “L’archéologie du savoir” had shown the precise place: how to make visible the origin of the “things said” and the conditions of their appearing. But a year later, with the conference “L’ordre du discours”, the passage seemed to be completed, and the role of the literature scaled down.
