Focusing on the ethical implications of this mode of thought, Huffer shows how Foucault's poetic archival method offers a way to counter the disciplining of speech. At the heart of this method is a conception of the archive as Sapphic: the past's remains are, like Sappho's verses, hole-ridden, scattered, and dissolved by time.

Through these encounters, Foucault's Strange Eros conceives of ethics as experiments in living that work poetically to make the present strange.
