This article provides a prolegomena to a discussion of what Michel Foucault meant by �political spirituality� and �the courage of truth (parrhesia)�, terms which preoccupied his last lectures at the Collège de France and through which he continued to pursue his lifelong concern with the politics of truth and the history of the present. The article approaches these issues through the fate of the three strategic figures - God, Man and Life - that have traditionally problematised western rules of truth and truths of rule. It then proceeds to explore the living death, or afterlife, of Man and Life, which calls for a new courage of truth, and to which �political spirituality� has been one response.
