Choose your answer
Arrange the following in the chronological order of the dates of publication:
(A) Michel Foucault’s The Order of Things;
(B) M. K. Gandhi’s Hind Swaraj or The Indian Homerule;
(C) Stephen Greenblatt’s The Swerve: How the World Became Modern;
(D) Donna Harraway’s When Species Meet;
(E) Tony Bennett’s Formalism and Marxism.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Hind Swaraj belongs to 1909, The Order of Things to the 1960s, Formalism and Marxism to the late 1970s, When Species Meet to 2008 and The Swerve to 2011. Therefore B–A–E–D–C is the ascending order. Translation dates do not alter Foucault’s position between Gandhi and Bennett, and the final two books must remain Haraway before Greenblatt.
