The Ethos of Modernity: Foucault and Enlightenment

Despite being revised from my 1995-96 Master's thesis, the first part of this book, a monograph on the Enlightenment theories of Foucault, Kant and Baudelaire, is unique. When it was completed, I set out to expand it with a look at the historical basis of panopticism, and I did so without changing the basic framework of the original thesis. The cover art is a zoom shot of the Empire State Building in New York, an obvious panoptic reference.
