By Paul Veyne
Ce portrait philosophico-politique sans complaisance révèle un Foucault inattendu, un philosophe sceptique, un empiriste qu'il faut rapprocher de Montaigne. Comme nous le dit Paul Veyne : « Les fausses généralités et les discours varient à travers le temps ; mais, à chaque époque, ils passent pour vrais. Si bien que los angeles vérité se réduit à dire vrai, à parler conformément à ce qu'on admet être vrai et qui fera sourire un siècle plus tard. L'originalité de los angeles recherche de Michel Foucault est de travailler sur los angeles vérité dans le temps. »
