From Foucault to Heidegger

a one-way ticket?

Rudi Visker

pp. 47-72

Dasein, Heidegger says, stands in the truth. And not only that: it stands equi-primordially both in the truth and the untruth. Or in a later formulation on which the"Turning'has already stamped its seal: the untruth is"older'or"more primordial'than the truth itself, Dasein must be in the untruth in order to be in the truth. Mendel, on the other hand, as we read in Foucault, lies outside the truth: what he says gets lost in the tumultuous space of a "wild exteriority," where those are referred whose speech does not conform to the rules which the "discursive police" of their discipline set down2.
