Early in their careers, Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida argued over madness, reason, and history in an exchange that profoundly influenced continental philosophy and critical theory. This collection traces this exchange in debates over the possibilities of genealogy and deconstruction, approaches to philosophy, and the role of the archive.
