How does /lit/ feel about the 20th century French postmodern scene, particularly the works of Deleuze, Derrida, and Foucault?

Never read anything. I downloaded Foucault lectures, but still haven't read. Going to check out Deleuze too.

Recommend me a book, anon. For starters, I'm a bit retarded on humanities but I think I can read those.

Haven't read much of Derrida but honestly he was pretty based. His ability to make academics seethe is legendary.

they're fine if read in context, atrocious is read in isolation and taken too seriously (the american way)

I read ''Discipline and Punish'' during a course at uni and it felt like pseudoscience based on facts that were cherry-picked in order to ''prove'' bad things about the Western penal system without offering any actual alternative, and, as far as I remember, without any rigorous data nor anything of the sort.

It was five years ago and I didn't really care for it, as it was so predictable and precisely what I expected from someone like Foucault, so I don't remember much.

Never cared enough about the other two, and don't think I ever will.

GET THAT CAT AWAY FROM THE HOMOSEXUAL! YOU MAY SAY DELEUZE AND DERRIDA WERE HUMANISTS, BUT BY GOSH THAT THIRD ONE WOULD DO WHO KNOWS WHAT ON THAT INNOCENT SOUL!

HE CARES NOT FOR IT.

Deleuze is a very interesting thinker, definitely one of my favorite of the 20th century. I haven't read Derrida, don't really plan on it. Foucault is ok, but I prefer Agamben.

>Deleuze
3/10, Difference et Repetition was readable, all the rest I've read was absolute trash.
>Derrida
1/10, unreadable, no redeeming factor whatsoever.
>Foucault
4/10, some parts readable. Inferior in every way to his masters but wrote on more 'bait' sociopolitical topics so is better known.

I'm more of a Barthes and DeMan guy, metaphysics isn't really my thing

Based, but also pedos.
