Abstract

LOPEZ ARBOLEDA, Gloria María; DASUKY QUICENO, Samir Ahmed  and  GIRALDO ZULUAGA, Conrado de Jesús. Self-writing as an ethical-aesthetic survival in the autobiographical work of Louis Althusser. Sig. Fil [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.40, pp.166-191.  Epub Mar 07, 2022. ISSN 1665-1324.

In this article we try to show the close relationship between the autobiographical work and the recognition of it as an ethical-aesthetic practice that allowed the author to survive in the midst of the tragic events narrated by him. The particular bond, tried to elucidate, is related to the art of writing a work but, above all, of write-yourself, which, in the case of Althusser, reminds us that art can be the unfolding of the philosophical exercise.
