About the Beginning of the Hermeneutics of the Self: Two Lectures at Dartmouth
Abstract
Texte integral des deux conferences donnees par M. Foucault au College de Dartmouth en 1980 sous les titres de « Subjectivity and Truth » et « Christianity and Confession ». Elles marquent une transition de l'etude des systemes de relations de pouvoir vers l'etude de la creation de l'agent ethique et font allusion aux themes qui apparaitront plus tard dans les volumes 2 et 3 de l'« Histoire de la sexualite »

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
