Some of the sentences that Foucault say seem like runons for instance page 223 first sentence of the bottom paragraph, "in which, in which, in which" enough with it, I feel like I need a break in there.
I kind of wondering what time period he's talking about in the beginning, guess like he says it's the eighteenth century and about the plague but he kind of jumps back and forth little hard to follow.
I'm questioning his intent/views of his essay, is he a man wanting power such as this, to discipline people or just describing what discipline there is. Is he jealous of other who have the had this power?
What is with the use of number in this essay, why make a list?
He talks about discipline when and in my mind I think discipline as physical. Take Saddam Hussein, he actually killed people, friends, and loved ones just to discipline and to prove a point, and to make everyone else scared of him.
In terms of the American disciplinary system of breaking the law take American History X for example, he did three years for two accounts of man slaughter, and only did three years because his brother didn't testify against him. Is this possible or is it just Hollywood?
