In "Care of the Self" (1984) - the third volume of the series - the author describes the evolution of sexual morality and the modifications of the various practices through which the individual constitutes himself as such (medical regimes, marital ties, hetero- and homosexual relationships, etc.) , considering the works of Greek and Roman authors (philosophers, rhetoricians, physicians, writers, dream interpreters, etc.) of the first centuries of our era, including “Admonitions to Spouses” and “Dialogue on Love” by Plutarch, “Conversations” by Epictetus, “Letters to Lucilius" and "On Anger" by Seneca, "Letters" by Pliny the Younger, "On the Purpose of Parts of the Human Body" and "On Affected Places" by Galen, "On Medicine" by Celsus, "On Women's Diseases" by Soranus, treatises of late Hellenistic doctors from the collection Oribasia, etc. The book is accompanied by an annotated index of names, an extensive index of works cited, and a bibliography of Foucault's works.
