Abstract

In this article, we propose a reading of Foucaultian archeology especially in The Order of Things through an approximation between the concept of a priori in the Foucaultian historicism and the transcendental concepts in Kant and the hierarchy of values in Nietzsche. In the first case, we aim to show that Foucault
seeks to realize, in terms of the archeological procedure, a copernican revolution similar to Kants, notably, that in which concerns the radical change of history’s comprehension and the aiming at knowledge. In the second we propose that the concepts of order, rules, conditions of possibility frame a certain hierarchy of values, referring, with that, the discursive regularities and the systems of dispersal in each epistémê proposed by Foucault to a hierarchy of values, even though Foucault does not directly make such reference.


Keywords: archeology, a priori historicism, value hierarchy; knowledge; epistémê
