Departing from a Heideggerian standpoint, the present article aims at discussing the contra-Foucauldian hypothesis of a metaphysics present in the immanentist discourse of archaeogenealogy. With a view to achieving the goal proposed, the paper builds a brief itinerary of what is considered “Foucauldian romanticism”. Initially, it draws on the Derridian critique of a transcendental categorization of ‘madness’ and opposes it to accounts of madness as absence of labor. Then, the paper offers a brief account of debates on literalness and their abandoning, following the renewed take-over of the enkrateia discourse. Finally, based on the concept of parrêsia, the article establishes some comparisons between the initial findings of archaeology and the issue of subjectivization present in the last courses. Thus, what is fundamental is to render noticeable a permanent relationship with Heideggerian metaphysics, in what concerns both the destruction project and the requirement for questioning that transcends the borders of immanence
