Your recently viewed items and featured recommendations David M. Halperin's Saint Foucault is an uncompromising and impassioned defense of the late French philosopher and historian as a galvanizing thinker whose career as a theorist and activist will continue to serve as a model for other gay intellectuals, activists, and scholars. For Howard Zinn, long-time civil rights and anti-war activist, history and ideology have a lot in common. Halperin (Literature/MIT; One Hundred Years of Homosexuality, not reviewed) offers this book as an attempt to recuperate the late writer's position as an ``oppositional thinker who is also gay and who undertakes explicitly to combine scholarship and politics in his own practice.''

Considering the ``politics of writing a gay life,'' Halperin denounces James Miller's biography The Passion of Michel Foucault for what he takes to be its anti-Foucauldian stance and particularly for its positioning of Foucault as a sexually abnormal ``freak.''
Finally, he turns the tables on Miller, offering a reading of the biographer as obsessed with ``abnormal'' sexuality. Unfortunately, like Foucault's work itself, probably too arcane for a general readership.
