Ren  Magritte's famous canvas provides the starting point for a delightful homage by French philosopher and historian Michel Foucault. Much better known for his incisive and mordant explorations of power and social exclusion, Foucault here assumes a more playful stance. By exploring the nuances and ambiguities of Magritte's visual critique of language, he finds the painter less removed than previously thought from the pioneers of modern abstraction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-113154\"\u003eMichel Foucault\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.93h x 5.03w x 0.26d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520236943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520236947\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-ART\"\u003eArt\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-ART009000\"\u003eCriticism \u0026amp; Theory\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most important theorists of the twentieth century, \u003cb\u003eMichel Foucault's \u003c\/b\u003e(1926-1984) many influential books include \u003ci\u003eDiscipline and Punish, The Archeology of Knowledge, The History of Sexuality, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Discourse on Language. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42684032942317,"sku":"9780520236943","price":31.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_f70e7e3f-2b9a-40dd-860b-4ee69c878141.jpg?v=1649750798","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/this-is-not-a-pipe-24-9780520236943","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
