I have a problem and I've had it for a while now, but my doubts are just now reemerging in my head after being buried for a while.

My fantasy series takes place at a fantasy school. The first book is 89k words long. For the first 6000 words, the narrative takes place at the school and in the surrounding area. However, after that, it flashes back to the protagonist's childhood for 17.5k words. The rest of the story takes place back at the school.

In the past, I was primarily concerned with agents taking issue with this, but I decided that I'm just going to dump this online when the entire series is written out. But would the average reader take as much issue with it as an agent? That's what I'm concerned with now. Would you be bothered with all that time spent away from the main setting?

I wonder if the shift that Foucault note was really caused by changes in government and governance under non-monarchal systems. After all, the Prussian education and military system, which is discipline par excellence, was instituted under a monarch far away from the benthamite experiments. It doesn't seem to me that disciplinary methods are a result of shifts in sovereign authority of the embodied prince replaced by liberal punishment-as-reformation turned discipline. I'd sooner attribute it to shifts in epistemic foundations of organizations à la Weber's rationality and Bureaucracy than otherwise. It's been a while since i've read discipline and punish though.
