Abstract

ABRAHAO, Maria Helena Menna Barreto. Anotações teórico-metodológicas do trabalho com fontes visuais e audiovisuais em pesquisas com Histórias de Vida e Memoriais de Formação. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2014, vol.39, n.01, pp.13-26. ISSN 1984-6444.

The text explicits the reflection that bases the use of pictures, films and videofilms as sources in research on Life Stories and Self-referential Memorials in Teachers’ Education. After refering to the researches in which we use this support since 1988, we work with two complementary pairs of theoretical dimensions of narratives in visual and audiovisual sources and their use in such empirical research: subjectivity/truth and space/time. These dimensions are worked grounded in Barthes (1984) to propose an interpretative effort of these sources to understand the essence of photography according to the photographer and the essence of photography according to the photographed person concocted to the essence of photography according to the researcher. The Barthesian constructs studium and punctum are applied to reading the narratives of the filmic and photographic material, reaching the more radical expression of the Barthesian puctum: real or representational death of the referent that serves the photos and movies. The discussion of these dimensions for the analysis of (audio) visual sources is complemented with the support of several other authors.

Keywords : (Auto)Biographical Research; (Audio)Visual Sources; Barthesian Dimensions.
