Foucault's lecture notes (although the notes were sometimes consulted); rather, they are transcriptions from audio tapes recorded by students of Foucault. 3However, contrary to the editors' intentions, serious Foucauldians would remind them that Foucault does mention the transcription of public addresses as part of the oeuvre process:[D]oes the name of an author designate in the same way a text that he has published under his name, a text that he has presented under a pseudonym, another found after his death in the form of an unfinished draft, and another that is merely a collection of jottings, a notebook?... [I]s it enough to add to the texts published by the author those that he intended for publication but which remained unfinished by the fact of his death?... And what status should be given to letters, notes, reported conversations, transcriptions of what he said made by those present at the time, in short, to that vast mass of verbal traces left by an individual at his death, and which speak in an endless confusion so many different languages (langages)
