One philosopher described this field as “[trying] to define not the thoughts … revealed in discourse” but as an attempt to define discourse itself. A book titled for this field classifies the letters A, Z, E, R, and T as a statement when listed in a typewriting manual but not when on a keyboard. That book titled for this field discusses how attention has turned to “phenomena of rupture” and has a section on “discursive regularities.” The Order of Things exemplifies one thinker’s (*) method named for this field, (-5[1])which preceded the genealogical method and is exemplified by a book titled for [this field] of Knowledge. It’s not geology, but this field uses stratigraphy to chronologically sort objects. For 10 points, Michel Foucault’s (“foo-KOH’s”) philosophy of history was inspired by what field that excavates human artifacts? ■END■ (10[1])
