YASOSHIMA, Fabio  y  MESSAS, Guilherme. Foucault and Binswanger: an unexpected convergence?. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.2, pp.196-203. ISSN 1809-6867.  https://doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2018v24n2.8.

The names Foucault and Binswanger are so seldom seen together that the question of any convergence between the authors may at first sound preposterous. In the present study, based on the analysis of some of their works and on contributions from their commentators, we sought to present some indications for a brief incursion into certain aspects of the story behind this connection, whose implications cannot be dismissed as a mere casual intellectual affinity between the French philosopher and Swiss psychiatrist. We argue that there exists a convergence between the two, centered on aspects such as the rejection of organicist and psychodynamic explanatory models; and the methodological use of the notion of a priori. We conclude that there is an important convergence between the works of the two authors.

Palabras clave : Ludwig Binswanger; Michel Foucault; Phenomenology.
