Anthologies
In French, almost all of Foucault's shorter writings, published interviews and miscellany have been published in a collection called Dits et écrits, originally published in four volumes in 1994, latterly in only two volumes.
In English, there are a number of overlapping anthologies, which often use conflicting translations of the overlapping pieces, frequently with different titles. Richard Lynch's bibliography of Foucault's shorter work is invaluable for keeping track of these multiple versions. The major collections in English are:
- Language, counter-memory, practice, ed. Donald F. Bouchard (1977)
- Power/Knowledge, ed. Colin Gordon (1980)
- The Foucault Reader, ed. Paul Rabinow (1984)
- Politics, Philosophy, Culture: Interviews and Other Writings, 1977-1984, tr. Alan Sheridan, ed. Lawrence D. Kritzman (1988)
- Foucault Live (2nd Ed.), ed. Sylvère Lotringer (1996)
- The Politics of Truth, ed. Sylvère Lotringer (1997)
- Ethics: subjectivity and truth (Essential Works Vol. 1), ed. Paul Rabinow (1997)
- Aesthetics, Method, Epistemology (Essential Works Vol.2), ed. James D. Faubion (1998)
- Power (Essential Works Vol. 3), ed. James D. Faubion (2000)
- The Essential Foucault, eds. Paul Rabinow and Nikolas Rose (2003)
Lectures
In a 1967 lecture, called in English either "Different spaces" or Of Other Spaces[11] (reprinted in Aesthetics, Method, and Epistemology, and in The Visual Culture Reader, ed. Nicholas Mirzoeff), Foucault coined a novel concept of the heterotopia.
