Biography and publications
Michel Foucault is a French philosopher, born onOctober15 1926 in Poitiers. Rejecting the medical studies his surgeon father envisioned for him, he studied philosophy and psychology at the École normale supérieure on rue d'Ulm from 1946 onwards.
He was awarded the agrégation in philosophy in 1951, and his first position as assistant professor of psychology at the Lille Faculty of Letters the following year.
From 1955 onwards, his postings abroad - first to Uppsala in Sweden, then to Warsaw in Poland, and finally to Hamburg in Germany - provided the opportunity to write his doctoral thesis, which was presented by Daniel Lagache and Georges Canguilhem.
Canguilhem recommended him to Jules Vuillemin, then head of the philosophy department at the University of Clermont-Ferrand, where Michel Foucault taught psychology from 1961. His thesis was published that same year under the title Folie et déraison.Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique
