Synopsis "Los Anormales (in Spanish)"

El curso sobre los anormales, dictado en el Collège de France entre enero y marzo de 1975, prolonga los análisis que Michel Foucault consagró desde 1970 a la cuestión del saber y el poder. A partir de múltiples fuentes teológicas, jurídicas y médicas, Foucault enfoca el problema de esos individuos peligrosos a quienes, en el siglo XIX, se denominaba "anormales" y los define en tres figuras principales: los monstruos, los incorregibles y los onanistas.

Michel Foucault (Poiters, 1926 – Paris, 1984), philosopher, historian, and French sociologist, was a professor at numerous universities both in France and internationally. In 1970, the general assembly of professors at the Collège de France granted him the chair of History of Systems of Thought, which he held until his death.
Son of a prominent surgeon from the Vichy area, Foucault did not excel in his studies until he reached the École Normale Supérieure, a prerequisite for entering the University, where he studied philosophy and psychology. Nevertheless, he ended up earning his doctorate and becoming the most cited author in the world in the field of humanities in 2007, according to The Times Higher Education Guide.
In 1966 he published Les Mots et les choses, one of his most important contributions to structuralism along with Jacques Lacan, Claude Lévi-Strauss, and Roland Barthes.
Michel Foucault is the author, among other books, of Madness and Civilization, Discipline and Punish, The History of Sexuality—of which he only completed 3 volumes—, Mental Illness and Personality, Mental Illness and Psychology, Fearless Speech, Essential Works, and Language and Literature, the last five published by Paidós.
