This study is anchored in an analysis of discursive practices that is focused on language as action. As such, "intimacy" was considered as a linguistic repertoire that is intertwined in a temporality that is both a product of the “long time” of history and the "here and now" of its current use and the focus of this thesis is on this tension between historical repertoires and current uses of “intimacy”. Based on these considerations, the objective of the research was to analyze the use of “intimacy” in contemporary scientific articles seeking permanencies and reconfigurations of associated practices in order to reflect on the social changes that contributed to the weakening of the distinction between public and private spaces in contemporary society, especially in what concerns the right to information and the exposure of intimacy resulting from communication technologies. As “intimacy” has a long history, the strategy used was to extract analytical categories from articles located through an electronic library that houses journals that publish in open access: SciELO. In order to define the categories that would allow the analysis of permanencies and reconfigurations of intimacy, each article was read, and reviews were produced following which it was possible to classify each article's use of intimacy into three categories: intersubjective experiences, rights and exposure and commodification of intimacy. The next step was to confront the “long time” of these categories with the modes of contemporary use of the notion which were discussed in three chapters: one focused on the boundaries and tensions between public and private spaces; another focused on the relationship between rights and intimacy and the last one concerning the transformations resulting from new technologies regarding the commodification and exposure of intimacy. The results of this analysis suggest that the notion of intimacy takes on specific forms according to the transformations in the separation between public and private spaces and, as result, privacy, as existed in Modernity, has become increasingly fragile and increasingly independent of our will or consent.
