Riassunto:This study proposes a revised interpretation of Foucault’s views on literature. It has been argued that the philosopher’s interest in literature was limited to the 1960s and of a mostly depoliticized nature.

In the light of this new material, the book repositions Foucault's ideas within recent debates on the politics of literature.
