Sujeição e singularidade nos processos de subjetivação

Subjection and singularity in the processes of the formation of subjectivity. The article at hand aims to reflect on the effects of power over the processes of the formation of subjectivity, taking as a central reference the paradox of subjection as it is presented in the works of Judith Butler, Freud and Nietzsche. From these considerations on, turning to some works of Gilles Deleuze and Giorgio Agamben, it also intends to consider certain processes of singularization, which, as practices of liberty, offer themselves as alternatives of combat to the models of subordination based on the processes of identity.

Algunas consideraciones nietzscheanas sobre cuerpo y salud

No intuito de ressaltar a importância de algumas consideracoes nietzschianas para o entendimento que se pode ter do corpo e da saude, o presente trabalho parte da critica formulada por Nietzsche a metafisica e ao platonismo para discutir o seu ponto de vista a proposito das relacoes entre corpo e consciencia. A partir dai, tendo como referencia principal o conceito de vontade de potencia, procura-se mostrar como o corpo poderia ser concebido como uma metafora a qual Nietzsche recorre em sua interpretacao critica da subjetividade e da cultura.

Sobre a crítica da perversão social em reich, fromm e Marcuse

o objetivo deste ensaio e fazer uma breve analise dos aportes de Wilhelm Reich, Erich Fromm e Herbert Marcuse, que de alguma forma contribuiram para a formulacao de uma teoria psicanalitica da perversao social. Nesse sentido, percorremos algumas obras dos autores ao analisar conceitos importantes, tais como os de economia sexual, carater autoritario, principio de desempenho e dessublimacao repressiva, para avaliar ate que ponto eles podem ser utilizados como operadores conceituais na analise de alguns fenomenos sociais perversos. O ensaio tambem apresenta criticas a determinadas solucoes propostas pelos autores, mostrando como os caminhos seguidos desembocam em dois modelos de utopia sexual e social.

About bodies and monsters: some contemporary reflections

This work has as its general aim to argue about some relations between the body and the phenomenon of the monster teratological or fictional -, trying to evaluate the shocks that the monstrous figure provokes in the models of apprehension of subjectivity mainly constructed on the references of representation and identity. In more specific terms, starting mainly from authors aligned with the philosophy of difference, the paper discusses different possibilities of subversion raised by monstrosity in its relations with the body, such as the ones that occur in the fields of science, culture, gender studies and the politics of subjectivation. In all these versants it tries to emphasize that, when affirming its radical difference, the figure of the monster opens new ways of access to becoming and singularity.This work has as its general aim to argue about some relations between the body and the phenomenon of the monster - teratological or fictional -, trying to evaluate the shocks that the monstrous figure provokes in the models of apprehension of subjectivity mainly constructed on the references of representation and identity.

Permanecendo no próprio ser: a potência de corpos e afetos em Espinosa

This article aims mainly to cover some passages of the Ethics of Spinoza, searching to delimit the place and the importance of the notion of body in his thought. During this course, other fundamental questions correlated to the central subject are also approached, such as the concepts of substance and power, as well as the relations between body and mind. Finally, it looks to delimit the specific place of the human body, articulating it with the decisive place for the affection in Espinozas theory. With this course the article searches also to accentuate the basic importance of the notions of life and immanence in its theory.
