Abstract

Foucault, in his human science archaeology period, carried out researches and analyses on the historical conditions and specific rules of discourse structure of modern human sciences, criticizing the Traditional Philosophy of Transcendental Consciousness and Subjectivism of Western Philosophy. Michel Foucault, who held that the subject is just a product of discourse constitution, destroyed the concept of creative subjects through the revelation of the underlying rules constituting the possible conditions of thought. And he also regarded the development of thought as a series of epistemological ruptures, which disrupted the logic of the identity that determined modern thought and made possible the reflections on others.
