    Hi! My name is Albert. I am a college student studying sociology. I am in a sociology theory course in which each of us is required to teach a class period. My assignment is to teach a period in which we are covering selected readings from Discipline and Punish (Foucault) and The Logic of Practice/ Social Space and Symbolic Space (a lecture) by Bordieu. I was wondering if anyone could recommend texts which will prepare me for this assignment outside of the course readings? I have six weeks to prepare so there is time to read but I would like to find a commentary on these philosophers in general as well as analysis on the assigned readings if possible.

    You can try Michel de Certeau “The practice of everyday life”.
    There is a comparative critique of both Foucault and Bordieu. A little bit outdated, it gives a different
    perspective.

    That's the book with "reading as poaching" isn't it! I could never remember where I read that, which, there you go.
