PENA, Felipe. Mediatical subjectivity: time and memory in the contemporary biographical discourse. []. , 19, 1, pp.41-55. ISSN 0103-5665.

The goal of this article is to propose an analysis regarding the concepts of time and memory (as mentioned by Elias and Derrida) in the constitution of subjectivity produced by contemporary biographical discourse. Our hypothesis is that biographies are constructed every day in the media, producing celebrities that influence in identity arrangement. We follow Pierre Bourdieu's conclusions, for which these identities are subscribed through what he calls Biographical Illusion, "the one that takes a life story as a sequence of facts with meaning and direction".
