The place of space in The Birth of the Clinic.
This paper offers an account of the role of the concept of space in Foucault's The Birth of the Clinic, and, particularly, of the challenge it poses for conventional philosophical accounts of space and time. The question of the relation between conceptual, bodily, and institutional spaces is also treated.
