Abstract

Considering the importance of subject’s notion from Modern Philosophy, this essay aims to (re)build a historical possibility for the subject from philosophy’s, psychanalysis’ and sociology’s theoretical contributions. It is not about to write a definitive history of the subject, but to emphasize the diversity of thoughts around his emergency possibilities in the intertwining of these three areas of knowledge. If it is in the modernity that the discussion about the subject emerges, it will be in the contemporaneity that elements about the processes of subjectivation, of how to become the subject of the experience, begins to be debated. Thus, since the Cartesian split between res cogitans and res extensa, until the nietzschean subject´s perspective of will to power, this work intends to illustrate different author´s contributions – of the aforementioned areas – in the sense of understand what the subject might become.
