| Summary: | The purpose of this article was to present some reflections and discussions about the potential of the practice of writing in a context of deprivation of liberty from an educational workshop held at the Centro de Ressocialização Masculino (CR) in Rio Claro. The question that guided the study was: what moves and what can writing in prison? For this, I brought the narration of my trajectory as a professor of Natural Sciences in this space as a way to bring contributions to think about discipline, punishment and daily life in prisons. A contextualization of the prison system was carried out as a place of imprisonment of poverty, ostensive and reformative discipline over the individual and the place that the CR occupies in this prison system. With regard to methodology, for a perspective of writing, there are theoretical contributions in the line of authors as Deleuze and Foucault. Creating narratives for what I observed when crossing a prison context, both as a teacher and as a researcher, brings me closer to the cartographic method, which opened up possibilities for thinking about the relation between the practice of writing and the processes of self-invention and resistance to power discipline in incarcerated spaces. |
