This article explores the ongoing fascination with Foucault’s brief and rather sketchy idea of heterotopia. Drawing out some key lessons from the most sustained interpretations of this curious spatio-temporal concept, it addresses weaknesses and potential contradictions and goes on to highlight trends and emerging themes in studies that incorporate the notion. The article argues that although the uses of Foucault’s accounts of heterotopia are bewilderingly diverse, heterotopias are most productively understood in the context of Foucault’s insistence on ‘making difference’ and their adoption as a tool of analysis to illuminate the multifaceted features of cultural and social spaces and to invent new ones.

The Geographies of Heterotopia

In this philosophically sophisticated and historically significant work, John H. Zammito reconstructs Kant's composition of \"The Critique of Judgment\" and reveals that it underwent three major transformations before publication. He shows that Kant not only made his \"cognitive\" turn, expanding the project from a \"Critique of Taste\" to a Critique of Judgment but he also made an \"ethical\" turn. This \"ethical\" turn was provoked by controversies in German philosophical and religious culture, in particular the writings of Johann Herder and the \"Sturm und Drang\" movement in art and science, as well as the related pantheism controversy. Such topicality made the Third Critique pivotal in creating a \"Kantian\" movement in the 1790s, leading directly to German Idealism and Romanticism. The austerity and grandeur of Kant's philosophical writings sometimes make it hard to recognize them as the products of a historical individual situated in the particular constellation of his time and society. Here Kant emerges as a concrete historical figure struggling to preserve the achievements of cosmopolitan Aufkl-rung against challenges in natural science, religion, and politics in the late 1780s. More specifically Zammito suggests that Kant's Third Critique was animated throughout by a fierce personal rivalry with Herder and by a strong commitment to traditional Christian ideas of God and human moral freedom. \"A work of extraordinary erudition. Zammito's study is both comprehensive and novel, connecting Kant's work with the aesthetic and religious controversies of the late eighteenth century. He seems to have read everything. I know of no comparable historical study of Kant's Third Critique.\"-Arnulf Zweig, translator and editor of Kant's;IPhilosophical Correspondence, 1759-1799;X \"An intricate, subtle, and exciting explanation of how Kant's thinking developed and adjusted to new challenges over the decade from the first edition of the \"Critique of Pure Reason\" to the appearance of the \"Critique of Judgment.\"\"-John W. Burbidge, \"Review of Metaphysics\" \"There has been for a long time a serious gap in English commentary on Kant's \"Critique of Judgment\"; Zammito's book finally fills it. All students and scholars of Kant will want to consult it.\"-Frederick Beiser, \"Times Literary Supplement\

The Genesis of Kant's Critique of Judgment.

Foucault’s work has been used to promote a negative view of the museum as an Enlightenment institution that embodies state power and strives to order the world according to universal rules and the concept of a total history. This article argues that an analysis of Foucault’s work actually leads to a view of the museum that is positive and progressive for dismantling the very notions of historical continuity and coherence that Foucault rejects. This gives the museum a unique status for Foucault, as an institution that has its origins in the Enlightenment values or ‘capabilities’ that enable us to overcome the relations of power that are based on those Enlightenment values. The museum exemplifies the tension in Foucault’s position on the Enlightenment: that we must rely on Enlightenment values of critique, freedom and progress in order to reject the Enlightenment relations of power that have been based on these values. The first part of the paper suggests a Foucaultian definition of the museum as a space of difference and space of representation. The second part argues that on the basis of this definition, the museum has the potential to enact Foucault’s genealogy, and to contribute to progress.

Spinoza's Ethics

imagination ‘has a way of radiating meaning’ (124) Brancusi does not give a conceptual demonstration of flight; rather, he captures for us the very essence of flight; his work ‘radiates’ the meaning of flight. Importantly, Brancusi never abandons the task of concept exhibition: as Bruno points out, the artistic genius both discovers ideas for a concept and expresses these ideas (124). The creative process itself requires that the artistic use of the imagination be guided by the task of concept exhibition, the very task Kant assigns to judgement. In sum, a full book-length study of Kant’s theory of genius is a welcome addition to the literature on this often-neglected area of Kant studies. And while Bruno’s strategy of interpreting Kant’s theory of genius historically, as forging a path between Gerard and Herder is undermined by the acceptance of some common prejudices about Kant’s views on genius and taste, his analysis as a whole deserves to be read by anyone interested in Kant’s aesthetics.
