Abstract: Positoning myself in a critical agenda that reads autobiography not as the life of its authors, but rather as texts of that life, I consider that we can analyze these texts as a geography of the possible or as knowable community, in Elspeth Probyn’s and Raymond Williams’s words, respectively. Autobiographies are maps of possibilities of the self, landscapes of the self, where authors, simultaneously subjects and objects of their own discourse and representation, create conditions of possibility for their individual, social and political existence.
