Description

Michel Foucault (1926-1984) was greatly influenced by two types of art in the twentieth century, that is contemporary music and literature. Both of them attempted to depart from the art in the nineteenth century based on humanism. This movent in art and culture is called formalism, and at the same period the structuralism appeared in France. The first section of this paper (§1 Contemporary Music) examines the relation between music as formalism in the twentieth century and the philosophy of Michel Foucault. And the second (§2 Dream as Expression, Madness, Literature) concerns literature as formalism in the twentieth century. Throughout this paper we find that Foucault wanted to remind us that we have lived in the distance from the madness.
