Abstract

Beginning from the reading of the Foucault studies on the self care and of Deleuze and Guattari on the body without organs, we had for purpose to trace the possible approximations between the self writing and the body without organs diary. This exercise of self writing is an exercise of constitution of bodies that, besides turning back over oneself, provides a self care in order to care for the others. We conceived the body without organs diary as an ethopoietic movement towards an ethical and esthetic dimension, but also political of life.
