The methodology of critical analysis employed
by Michel Foucault:
He notes;
“In the course of my work, I utilize methods that are part of the classic
repertory: demonstration, proof by means of historical documentation, quoting
other texts, referral to authoritative comments, the relationship between ideas
and facts, the proposal of explanatory patterns, etc. There’s nothing original
in that. “
