O "eu narrável" e o “eu narrado” em Adriana Cavarero: as narrativas de vida de/sobre Herbert Daniel

Abstract

The text compares Herbert Daniel's autobiography with the biography written by James Green. While the autobiography offers a subjective and personal view of Daniel's life, the biography aims for an objective and historical narrative. Adriana Cavarero's concept of the "narratable self" is used to explain how identity is constructed through narratives. Both works complement each other, providing different perspectives on Daniel's life. The text also connects Cavarero's ideas with those of other philosophers like Hannah Arendt and Judith Butler, highlighting the importance of narrative in understanding human identity. The autobiography and biography about Herbert Daniel, when analyzed in light of Cavarero's philosophy, reveal the complexity of identity construction through narratives.
