    Abstract

    In this article we trie 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.
