Notes

1. Foucault, ‘The Ethics of the Concern for Self as a Practice of Freedom’, p. 298. It is truly remarkable that, particularly in the 1980s, Foucault began to talk about freedom in the context of power. Neither Discipline and Punish nor the Will to Knowledge talked about freedom.

2. Heidegger, The Will to Power as Art, Vols I and II, p. 60.

3. Ibid., p. 61.

4. Ibid.

5. Transl. note: This neologism combines two meanings, ‘going together with itself’ and ‘coming together with itself’.

30. Hegel, The Science of Logic II, p. 532. [Transl. note: ‘reaches out and embraces’ translates ‘übergreifen’, which today evokes far more negative connotations; the nominalized form, ‘Übergriff’, denotes ‘encroachment’, ‘assault’ and ‘abuse’, including assault and abuse of a sexual nature.]

31. Foucault, Discipline and Punish, p. 30. [Transl. note: The full sentence runs: ‘The man described for us, whom we are invited to free, is already in himself the effect of a subjection much more profound than himself.’ I have retained the male gender in this case.]

40. We may safely assume that this image is based on a projection of the human desire [Wunschbild] onto the ‘animal’. That animal is as imaginary as the ‘human being’.

41. Bataille, Theory of Religion, p. 18.

42. Ibid., p. 17.

43. Handke, ‘Essay on Tiredness’, p. 41 (transl. mod.). [Transl. note: The English translation opts for a free translation of this passage, rendering it as ‘Tiredness is greater than the self.’]

44. Deep tiredness is anything but consuming.
