Examining and understanding the series of speeches that bring the trajectory of Victório Caneppa, penitentiary director between the 1930s and 1950s, is the objective of this work. The manager created the magazine A Estrela- Órgão da Penitenciária Central do Distrito Federal (the star magazine part of the central Penitentiary of the Federal District) and used it as a place of memory. In his journal, he sought to create his professional identity and praised his trajectory as a great reference in the area. In this sense, the aforementioned magazine is configured as an (auto)biographical source, insofar as Caneppa writes about himself and other subjects write about him. Given the above, I raise the following questions: who was Victorio Caneppa? What representations about the director permeate the mentioned form? What do the press, authorities and experts say about the director? What were his contributions to the prison system? Therefore, I seek to bring to light the series of discourses that involve the construction of the manager's self-memory and the contradictions and ambiguities that permeate the paths and life of this subject. Interpreting Caneppa's facets through the magazine A Estrêla magazine and other researched sources, also allowed me to raise hypotheses about the silencing of his trajectory in the academic field
