Michael Foucault is a great thinker in the history of western philosophy,He discussed his unique understanding about Image,Literature and the relationship of between of both in his writings.It occupies an important position in Foucault's thought.However,at present, the academic circles pay more attention to Foucault's painting ideas,People rarely concerns Foucault's discourse about the relationship between images and literature.Lack of understanding of between the Literature-Image relationship, knowledge,Discourse,power.therefore,This thesis takes Foucault as the object of study,combined with the theory of knowledge, power and discourse,Delve into Foucault's concept of the Literature-Image relationship.There are there parts in the thesis: the development of Foucault's concept of the Literature-Image relationship,deep metaphorical meaning of the Literature-Image relationship,reflection on the Literature-Image relationship.The first part will comb the development process of Foucault's concept of the Literature-Image relationship:in the early period, he attaches great importance to visual ideographic nature that based on the difference between each other, Through the analysis of La Folie et la civilisation,La naissance de la clinique and La peinture de Manet; Ceci n'est pas une pipe reflect philosophical development that Foucault's concept of the Literature-Image relationship of the later period.The paradoxical tension between literature and image is our next research focus.The second part will discuss influence of power discourse theory on the formation of the concept of the Literature-Image relationship.From the functional and practical level of discourse,discipline and resistance of power, to explore the connotation and Foucault's concept of the Literature-Image relationship.To a certain extent, the concept of the Literature-Image relationship reflects the function of the discourse and the practice of the discourse.On the other hand,there are the operation of power implied in the Literature-Image relationship,paradoxical tension between literature and image Is the result of power discipline and resistance.Foucault focused on the flow of power between the image and literature.Foucault thinks that game between image and Literature creates new discourse of image.in the third part,on the basis of a comprehensive grasp of Foucault thought system,reflect and value Foucault's concept of the Literature-Image relationship,expounds its practical significance, and points out its limitation.Foucault concentrates on marginal visual images,affirms the resistance of image to subvert thetraditional theoretical system of monism and Western logocentrism.but the result of this kind of resistance is not so satisfactory.To reflect research of the relationship between image and literature,people's concern with image hegemony is universal,the research of academic circle about the relationship between image and literature and the image turn are still limited by logocentrism, the linguistic turn in the philosophical sense has not been completed,the rise of image theory has a long way to go.
