The four first mendicant orders are the Dominicans, the Franciscans, the Carmelites, and the Augustinians.
For the Dominicans, see above note 4.
Constituted in 1209 by Francis of Assisi, the "Brotherhood of Penitents," devoted to the preaching ol penitence, was transformed into a religious order in 1210 with the name "Friars Minor" (minores: humble) and intending to lead an itinerant life of poverty.

9. In 1343 Jan Van Ruysbroek (1294-1381) founded a community at Groenendaal, near
Brussels, which he transformed in March 1350 into a religious order living under the Augustinian rule devoted to the struggle against heresy and lax morality within the Church. See, F. Hermans, Ruysbroek /'Admirable et son ecole (Pans: Fayard, 1958); J. Orcibal,

10. One of the distinctive features of the schools of the "Brethren ol the Common Lile" was the distribution of students into decurics at the head ol which a decurion was responsible for the supervision ol conduct. See, M. J. Gaulres, "Histoire du plan d'etudes protestant. "
11. "Nowhere does the impression of order and religious emphasis appear better than in the use of time. Early in the morning the inhabitants go to mass, then the children go to school and the adults to the workshop or fields . . . When work has ended, religious exercises begin: the catechism, the rosary, prayers; the end ol the day is free and left for strolling around and sport. A curfew marks the beginning of the night. . .
This regime partakes of both the barracks and the monastery. " L. Baudin, Une theocratie socialiste: VEtat jesuite du Paraguay (Paris: M. T. Genin, 1962) p. 23. See, L. A. Muraton, J. Cristianesimo felice nelle

14. From 1781, the worker had to be provided with a "livret" or "earner" which had to be stamped by the administrative authorities when he moved and which he had to present when he started work. Reinstated by the Consulate, the livret was only finally abolished in 1890. See, M. Sauzet, Le Livret obligatoire des ouvriers, (Paris: F. Pichon, 1890); G.

A State penitentiary was built by Harvey, Busby, and Williams between 1816 and 1821 on a site at Pentonville acquired by Jeremy Bentham in 1795. It had a radiating structure ol six pentagons around a central hexagon containing the chaplain, inspectors, and employees.
The prison was demolished in 1903.
18. Petite Roquette was built following a competition for the construction of a model prison,
the arrangement of which, according to the terms of the circular of 24 February 1825, must be "such that, with the aid of a central point or internal gallery, the whole ol the prison can be supervised by one person, or at the most two people. " C. Lucas, Du systeme penitentiaire en Europe el aux Elats-Unis (Pans: Bossange, 1828) vol. 1, p. cxm. "La Petite Roquette" or "central House for corrective education" was constructed in 1827 according to a plan proposed by Lebas. It was opened in 1836 and allocated to young prisoners until 1865.

2S. Foucault is alluding to Condillac's project ol deducing the order ol knowledge starting Irom sensation as the raw material of every development ol the human mind.

Pope Innocent IV decided to unite the hermits of Tuscany into a single community within the framework of the Augustinian order. SeeJ. Besse, "Augustin" in Dictionnaire de theologie catholique, vol. 1, col. 2472-2483. On the mendicant orders in general, see--in addition to the chapter devoted to them in H. C. Lea, A History of the Inquisition, vol. 1, pp. 275 346; Histoire de I'lnquisition, vol. 1, pp. 458-479; F. Vernet, Les Ordres mendiants (Pans: Bloud et Gay, 1933); J. Le Gofl, "Ordres mendiants et urbanisation dans la France medievale" in Annales ESC, no. 5, 1979, Histoire et Urbanisation, pp. 924 965- Foucault returns to the mendicant orders ol the Middle Ages, in the context of an analysis of "cynicism," in the College de France course of 1983 1984, "Le Gouvemement de soi et des autres. Le courage de la vente," lecture ol 29 February 1984.

9. In 1343 Jan Van Ruysbroek (1294-1381) founded a community at Groenendaal, near
Brussels, which he transformed in March 1350 into a religious order living under the Augustinian rule devoted to the struggle against heresy and lax morality within the Church. See, F. Hermans, Ruysbroek /'Admirable et son ecole (Pans: Fayard, 1958); J. Orcibal,
Jean de la Croix et les mystiques rheno-flamands, and A. Koyre, Mystiques, spirituels, alchimisles du XVIr siecle allemand (Paris: Gallimard, 1971).
10. One of the distinctive features of the schools of the "Brethren ol the Common Lile" was the distribution of students into decurics at the head ol which a decurion was responsible for the supervision ol conduct. See, M. J. Gaulres, "Histoire du plan d'etudes protestant. "
11. "Nowhere does the impression of order and religious emphasis appear better than in the use of time. Early in the morning the inhabitants go to mass, then the children go to school and the adults to the workshop or fields . . . When work has ended, religious exercises begin: the catechism, the rosary, prayers; the end ol the day is free and left for strolling around and sport. A curfew marks the beginning of the night. . .
This regime partakes of both the barracks and the monastery. " L. Baudin, Une theocratie socialiste: VEtat jesuite du Paraguay (Paris: M. T. Genin, 1962) p. 23. See, L. A. Muraton, J. Cristianesimo felice nelle

12. A congregation ol priests and scholars founded in the sixteenth century by Cesar de Bus
(1544 1607), which in 1593 was established at Avignon. Inserted in the current of a renewal of the teaching of the catechism, it developed in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by turning to teaching in the colleges. See, R. P.

14. From 1781, the worker had to be provided with a "livret" or "earner" which had to be stamped by the administrative authorities when he moved and which he had to present when he started work. Reinstated by the Consulate, the livret was only finally abolished in 1890. See, M. Sauzet, Le Livret obligatoire des ouvriers, (Paris: F. Pichon, 1890); G. Bourgin, "Contribution a I'histoire du placement et du livret en France" Revue politique el parlemen- taire vol. LXXI, January March 1912, pp. 117 118; S.

A State penitentiary was built by Harvey, Busby, and Williams between 1816 and 1821 on a site at Pentonville acquired by Jeremy Bentham in 1795. It had a radiating structure ol six pentagons around a central hexagon containing the chaplain, inspectors, and employees.
The prison was demolished in 1903.
18. Petite Roquette was built following a competition for the construction of a model prison,
the arrangement of which, according to the terms of the circular of 24 February 1825, must be "such that, with the aid of a central point or internal gallery, the whole ol the prison can be supervised by one person, or at the most two people. " C. Lucas, Du systeme penitentiaire en Europe el aux Elats-Unis (Pans: Bossange, 1828) vol. 1, p. cxm. "La Petite Roquette" or "central House for corrective education" was constructed in 1827 according to a plan proposed by Lebas. It was opened in 1836 and allocated to young prisoners until 1865.

2S. Foucault is alluding to Condillac's project ol deducing the order ol knowledge starting Irom sensation as the raw material of every development ol the human mind. See, Fitienne Bonnot de Condillac (1715 1780), Essai sur I'origine dcs connaissances humaine, ouvrage ou I'on riduil a un sail principc lout ce c/ui concemc I'enlcndemenl humain (Pans: P.

Franklin Philip in collaboration with Harlan Lane (Hillsdale and London: Lawrence Erlbaum, 1982). Foucault refers to this in an interview with C. Bonneloy in June 1966: "L'homme est il mort? " Dits el Ecrits, vol. 1, p. 57|2, and in Les Mots el le Choses, pp. 7M 77; The Order of Things, pp. 6 0 63.
29. This remark, which Bentham attributes to Helvetius, actually corresponds to the title ol a chapter "Education can do everything"--ol the posthumous work ol Claude Adrien Helvetius, De l'homme, de ses /aculles intellectuellcs el de son education, published by Prince Gelitzin (Amsterdam: 177M) vol. 3; English translation, A Treatise on Man; his intellectual faculties and his education, trans.
