Resumo: The article aims to analyze how elderly authors invent themselves through autobiographical writing in the contemporaneity. It also problematizes the potentiality of this process for the field of Education. Eight autobiographies were analyzed as main sources. They were written by men and women that were born in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil in the first half of the 20th century. In addition, IBGE census data were also used. The analysis allows us to affirm that gender belonging strongly delineates the references chosen by each one of the authors for the process of self-invention and also for the elaboration of the meanings of aging. For the women writers, family and religion constituted as the axis of the narratives. On the other hands, for the authors, the work and the socioeconomic condition were chosen to conduct the writing. Women refer to aging positively, but men tend to emphasize the losses and limitations related to this stage of life.

Como principales fuentes, se analizaron ocho autobiografías, escritas por hombres y mujeres, nacidos en Minas Gerais en la primera mitad del siglo XX, además de datos censales del IBGE. El análisis realizado nos permite afirmar que la pertenencia de género delinea fuertemente los referentes elegidos por cada uno de los autores para el proceso de invención de sí y también para la elaboración de los significados del envejecimiento. Si para las autoras, la familia y la dimensión religiosa se constituyeron como eje de las narrativas, para los autores, el trabajo y la condición socioeconómica fueron elegidos para conducir la escritura. Las mujeres se refieren al envejecer de forma positiva, mientras que los hombres tienden a enfatizar las pérdidas y las limitaciones relacionadas con esa etapa de la vida.O artigo tem como objetivo analisar como autoras e autores idosos inventam a si mesmos por meio da escrita autobiográfica na contemporaneidade, problematizando a potencialidade desse processo para o campo da Educação.
