Item Metamorfoseando a vida: a escrita autobiográfica de Herculine/Abel Barbin (1838-1868)(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2020-03-20) Araujo, Patrícia Simone de; Magalhães, Sônia Maria de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8841367325340262; Magalhães, Sônia Maria de; Soares, Ana Carolina Eiras Coelho; Pereira, Robson Mendonça; Silva, Leicy Francisca da; Abreu, Jean Luiz NevesThis research intention to analyze the autobiographical memories of Herculine/ Abel Barbin (1838-1868). The history of this personality draws attention for being born as a hemaphrodite inthe middle of France, in the middle of the 19 th century.In this sense, the central objective of this investigation is to examine how she or him interpreted her body and sexuality through intimate writing in face of the moral and medical concepts of her time.For this, the autobiographical method was used, mainly drinking inthe contributions of Loriga (2011), Dosse (2009), Vilas-Boas (2014) and Lejune (2008). In addition, to reflect on the issue of the body from the perspective of the normal dichotomy versus pathological, the contributions of Canguilhem (2009) and Foucault. To portray the hermaphrodite’s conceptions, the studies by Leite Júnior (2011) and Dreger (1998) were fundamental.Regarding the issue of sex, gender and sexualities, it is mostly supported by the studies of Laqueur (2001) , Foucault (1998) and Butler. Whit this theoretical contribution as a subsidy, it was observed that Barbin expressed an interpretative originality in relation to the pejorative vision that his era him, destabilizing the stage of certainties created by western societies about sex and sexuality. He decided to reconstruct himself by meand of a narrative identity unrelated to the deem of blame, but linked to an unjust person. It subvert the ignoble conception that the social had on this body, absent himself from any condemnation. For she or him, the big mistake was in the social standars formulated about sex and sexuality, and not in her or him. Thus, Barbin, through his text, made it possible to envision a being marked not only by pain, but above all, a courageous person who did not sumit to the standards of his time in the way of conceiving his body and place in the world, having thus, in his writing, a way to challenge the rules and morality in force at the time.
