Resumen: Este artículo estudia el fundamento estoico del pensamiento de Michel Foucault y su reflejo en la “cura sui”. Desde las primeras investigaciones de ese autor, existe una presencia fundamental de la “suprema dieta” kantiana. Kant desarrolló una colaboración final con el médico Hufeland en la etapa conocida como “Kant tardío”. La Macrobiótica o el arte de prolongar la vida (Stturgart, 1826, Bruxelas, 1842) del médico prusiano estableció una antropología presente en el Conflicto entre la Facultad de Filosofía y de Medicina y en la Antropología desde el punto de vista pragmático y la Doctrina de la virtud de Kant. La admiración fue mutua. Esta preocupación médica vertebra el pensamiento de Foucault desde sus primeras preocupaciones antropológicas hasta la “hermenéutica del sujeto” pasando por el Nacimiento de la clínica (1963).
This article studies the Stoic foundation of Michel Foucault’s thought and its reflection in the “cura sui”. Since the first research of this author, there is a fundamental presence of the Kantian “supreme diet.” Kant developed a final collaboration with the doctor Hufeland at the stage known as “late Kant.” The Prussian doctor’s Macrobiotics or the art of prolonging life (Stturgart, 1826, Brussels, 1842) established an anthropology present in the Conflict between the Faculty of Philosophy and Medicine and in Anthropology from the pragmatic point of view and the Doctrine of Virtue. The admiration was mutual. This medical concern structures Foucault’s thinking from his first anthropological concerns to the “hermeneutics of the subject” through the Birth of the Clinic (1963).
