Foucault and Agamben on Augustine, Paradise and the Politics of Human Nature
2023
This article focuses on Foucault’s and Agamben’s readings of Augustine’s account of human nature and original sin.

Rather than attempt to devise a ‘proper’ form of life, Agamben seeks to free life from the gravity of all tasks or vocations imposed on it by privileged forms. W…
