这门课程全面介绍了20世纪最具影响力的思想流派之一：后结构主义。后结构主义于20世纪60年代兴起，既是对结构主义的延续又是对其的批判，旨在挑战语言、知识和权力中固定意义和稳定结构的假设。这种从结构主义哲学-语言学世界观中激进的转变，使后结构主义成为西方思想史上后现代时代的开端。
在简要概述结构主义之后，本课程深入探讨与两位法国后结构主义思想家雅克·拉康（Jacques Lacan）和米歇尔·福柯（Michel Foucault）相关的关键概念和理论，以理解他们对语言、主体性、权力和社会的独特视角。此外，每节课都会搭配一篇短篇文学作品或一部电影，以促进课堂讨论。这些精选作品旨在使每节课中讨论的抽象概念具体化，为学生提供机会积极参与这些理论的探讨，并批判性地评估其局限性。
在整个课程中，学生将通过阅读原著、参与课堂讨论和发展分析技能，将理论应用于文学、电影、艺术和文化研究等不同领域。到课程结束时，学生不仅能够全面理解后结构主义的逻辑和方法，还能通过这些主要后结构主义哲学家的视角，反思当代人类境况。该课程的最终目标是创造一个空间，以重新思考和批判性地审视塑造我们对世界理解的假设和动态。
This course offers a comprehensive introduction to one of the most influential schools of thought in the twentieth century: poststructuralism. Poststructuralism emerged during the 1960s as both a continuation and critique of structuralism, aiming to challenge the assumptions of fixed meanings and stable structures underlying language, knowledge, and power. This radical departure from the structuralist philosophical-linguistic worldview, positions poststructuralism as the beginning of the postmodern era in the history of Western thought.
After a brief overview of structuralism, this course delves into the key concepts, and theories, associated with two French poststructuralist thinkers, Jaques Lacan and Michel Foucault. to provide an understanding of their unique perspectives on language, subjectivity, power, and society. Additionally, each session is paired with a short literary text or film to facilitate class discussion. These selected works serve to concretize the abstract concepts discussed in each session, providing students with an opportunity to actively engage with the theorists’ ideas and to critically assess the limitations of their perspectives.
Throughout the course, students engage in critical readings of primary texts, participate in class discussions, and develop analytical skills to apply theories to various domains, including literature, film, art, and cultural studies. By the end of the course, the students will not only possess a comprehensive understanding of poststructural logic and methods but also have the opportunity to reflect on the human condition in the present context through the lens of these major poststructuralist philosophers. This course eventually aims to create a space for rethinking and critically examining the assumptions and dynamics that shape our understanding of the world.
