Michel Foucault and Judith Butler: troubling Butler's appropriation of Foucault's work
One of the main influences on Judith Butler‘s thinking has been the work of Michel Foucault. Although this relationship is often commented on, it is rarely discussed in any detail. My thesis makes a contribution in this area. It presents an analysis of Foucault‘s work with the aim of countering Butler‘s representation of his thinking. In the first part of the thesis, I show how Butler initially interprets Foucault‘s project through Nietzschean genealogy, psychoanalysis and Derridean discourse, and how she later develops this interpretation in line with the progress of her own project. In the main part of the thesis, I present an analysis of Foucault‘s thinking in the period from The Archaeology of Knowledge (1969) to The History of Sexuality volume 1 (1976). This analysis focuses on the aspect of his work which has most influenced Butler‘s thinking: namely the notion of a relationship between knowledge, discourse and power. The other issues in his work which Butler addresses—genealogy, the subject, the body, abnormality, and sexuality—are discussed within this framework. I show how, in the early 1970s, Foucault develops the notion of power-knowledge, and sets out a relationship between power-knowledge and discourse which is overlooked by Butler. I argue that Butler interprets Foucaultian power through the notions of repression and social norms, and ignores the concepts of technology and strategy which form a key part of Foucault‘s thinking. I show how, from The Archaeology of Knowledge on, Foucault develops a socio-historical ontology and a genealogy of the subject, both of which are at variance with Butler‘s interpretation of his thinking

Andrew L Harris Civil War letter
Andrew L. Harris, a Union officer during the Civil War, wrote this letter on March 25, 1863 from Brook's Station, Virginia, the Army of Potomac's winter quarters. Harris reports that the Army is in fine condition and ready for the upcoming spring campaign. Most of the letter laments that the citizens of Ohio are providing aid and comfort to the enemy by opposing the Union government in its efforts in defeating the Southern cause. Harris suggests that the men who are sitting out the war at home should join the Union Army so that the veterans can teach the recruits how to fight. Andrew Harris notes that the world is watching the outcome of the American Civil War to see if democracy or the "Slave Aristocracy" will win out. Harris closes the letter by voicing his disappointment of the former General of the Army of the Potomac, George B. McClellan. Andrew L. Harris was born November 17, 1835, in Butler County, Ohio, and graduated from Miami University in 1860. In April 1861, he enlisted as a private in the 20th Ohio Volunteer Infantry (O.V.I) and was later commissioned as an officer in the 75th O.V.I. He saw active service in eighteen battles. At the battle of McDowell in Virginia he was seriously wounded, and his right arm permanently disabled by gunshot. He was also wounded in the fighting at Gettysburg. At Chancellorsville, he was made colonel and commander. On January 15, 1865, he was mustered out. After the Civil War, Andrew Harris served in various public offices including the Ohio Senate, lieutenant governor under William McKinley and in the McKinley presidential administration. Andrew L. Harris was Ohio's forty-fourth governor from 1906-1909. The 75th OVI (Ohio Volunteer Infantry) was organized at Camp McLean, in Cincinnati and left Ohio for Grafton, Virginia (now West Virginia) on January 28, 1862. The unit saw action at the McDowell, Cross Keys, Cedar Mountain, Freeman's Ford, and Bull Run (all in Virginia) in 1862. In 1863 the 75th sustained heavy casualties at the Battles of Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. The 75th OVI moved to Morris Island, South Carolina, in 1863 and Jacksonville, Florida, in 1864. Parts of the 75th OVI were mustered out in October and November 1864 with the balance of the 75th OVI mustered out July 15, 1865
L\u27Orlanda de Jacqueline Harpman: Virginia Woolf rencontre Carl Gustav Jung
Confrentée maintes fois à la question du rapport entre ses deux activités professionnelles, la psychanalyse et la littérature, Jacqueline Harpman ne cesse de maintenir qu\u27il s\u27agit là de deux domaines bien séparés. Alors que l\u27analyse réclame tout son sérieux, écrire s\u27avère être pour elle un divertissement auquel elle s\u27adonne par pur plaisir. S\u27il est difficile de croire chez elle à l\u27étanchéité de ces deux displines, c\u27est là une impossibilité lorsqu\u27on s\u27attelle à la lecture d\u27Orlanda (1996). Harpman elle-même est forcée de concéder
Andrew L. Harris Civil War letter regarding Battle of Chancellorsville
Andrew L. Harris wrote this letter to "friend Lough" on June 7th 1863 from Brooke's Station Virginia, the Army of Potomac's encampment after the Battle of Chancellorsville. The letter was written in response to a request for an explanation of the part that the 75th Ohio Volunteer Infantry (O.V.I.) played in the Battle of Chancellorsville. The 75th OVI was part of the 11th Corps that was blamed for the crushing defeat of the Union Army by "Stonewall" Jackson's famous flanking maneuver. Harris places the blame for the defeat on the Union Generals who in Harris's judgment were either incompetent for not knowing what the Rebel army was planning or indifferent for not trying to defeat the plan. Harris goes on to explain how the 75th changed front and deployed for battle "with as much coolness as though on parade." The fatal wounding of the regiment's Colonel Robert Riley is described in detail. Harris notes that the regiment lost one fourth of their force engaged in less than fifteen minutes of battle. Harris was born November 17, 1835, in Butler County, Ohio, and graduated from Miami University in 1860. In April 1861, he enlisted as a private in the 20th O.V.I. and was later commissioned as an officer in the 75th O.V.I. He saw active service in eighteen battles.

Reflections on the Past 40 Years of Archaeology in the Pacific Northwest
Butler reviews changes she has witnessed in the practice of archaeology in the Pacific Northwest since her 1975 field school at Lind Coulee. While enormous changes have occurred in technology (e.g., computers, GIS), analytic methods (e.g., aDNA, isotope geochemistry), and research questions and goals, the most profound change has been the increasing role of tribes and Indigenous peoples. Enlarging the scope of “who” does archaeology gives us new insights about our collective past, but also supports justice, equity and inclusion, values of increasing importance to society at large.https://pdxscholar.library.pdx.edu/archaeology-first-thursdays/1004/thumbnail.jp
