DIAS, Guilherme  y  GAUCHE, Ricardo. Sociological Portraits as an investigative method in Brazilian research in the fields of Education and Teaching: a review of dissertations published between 2011 and 2020. Ciência educ. [online]. 2021, vol.27, e21066.  Epub 02-Oct-2021. ISSN 1980-850X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320210066.

The Sociological Portrait is characterized as a biographical theoretical-methodological device, in which the oral narrative and other manifestations are used to reconstruct the legacy of an individual’s dispositions, to understand how him/her incorporates the social domain. Between 2011 and 2020, some Brazilian studies used this methodology to understand the influence of dispositions on school trajectories, on the reading practices of individuals, of bilingualism and on the construction of professional teaching identities. To better understand how this methodological instrument was used, this article presents a review of dissertations published in Brazil during that period. The review allows us to conclude that the use of the Sociological Portrait, as part of research methods, contributes to a new look at the way the social domain is apprehended by the individual, whether student or teacher.
