FOUCAULT E O NASCIMENTO DO DISCURSO: O ENUNCIADO E O PODER

The paper investigates a rupture at Foucault's thought and clarifies its main references. We demonstrate that there are two understandings of the concept of archeology. The prism of analysis is the language, and to understand it, we refer to the relationship of Foucault with two traditions, represented by Heidegger and Wittgenstein. The paper also investigates how the second field of archeology, in which the discursive practices take the place of the allegorical experience with language, privileging the discontinuities instead of institutionalization of its current uses, means an original development, in which we find the plot of language, more precisely of discursive practices, with power.
