Abstract

SANTOS HERCEG, José. The autobiographical discourse as a philosophical writing: Opening from the Latin American thought. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.1, pp.67-77. ISSN 1851-9490.

This text is intended to investigate, within the framework of literary genres in philosophy, the autobiography as a possible philosophical writing. Firstly, it appears that if it is considered an institutionalized and imposed "normal" way of philosophical writing, the autobiography is not accepted as properly philosophical. Secondly, it is attempted, from rescuing a philosophizing subject, as well as a place and a way of philosophical enunciation (rhetoric), to achieve an opening that it makes possible to think in autobiographical discourse as properly philosophical.

Keywords : Autobiography; Standardization; Subject; Place; Literature.
