Resumo: The search to comply with socially imposed standards of identity has justified and instituted a number of ways of body control. During the last two centuries we have lived under an ongoing process of discipline and normalization of our bodies. This process has subjective consequences because subjectivity is directly connected to the materiality of the body. Therefore, a history of creation of bodies and social identities is also a history of ways of producing subjectivity. This paper starts with this history to discuss a form of resistance: Michel Foucault´s proposal of an aesthetics of existence.

Há cerca de dois séculos vivemos um processo de contínuo disciplinamento e normalização dos corpos que também tem conseqüências subjetivas, pois a subjetividade está diretamente associada à materialidade do corpo. Assim, a história da criação de corpos e identidades sociais é também uma história dos modos de produção da subjetividade. O texto parte dessa constatação para discutir uma forma de resistência ao assujeitamento: a proposta foucaultiana de uma estética da existência.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2006-09-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X200600030000610.1590/S0104-026X2006000300006Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 14 No. 3 (2006); 681Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 14 Núm. 3 (2006); 681Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 14 n. 3 (2006); 6811806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2006000300006/7366Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMiskolci, Richard2020-01-30T08:56:32Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/7991Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:37:23.453197Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
