DAS (IM)POSSIBILIDADES DO CORPO: UMA ANÁLISE DISCURSIVA DA MODA SOBRE O CORPO PLUS SIZE
Abstract
The present work proposes, based on the archegenealogical method devised by Michel Foucault, to observe fashion as a historical fabrication that affects bodies and, more especially, fat bodies. Initially, we will contextualize the most immediate manifestations of power that, crossed by the body, history and fashion, produce the subject himself/herself. Then, we try to demonstrate how the body has been what it is fighting for at different historical moments. The concept of device is taken as a central point in the investigation of the evidence left on the historical surface of the fashion discourse in modern society. The material to which our analytical gaze is directed, in the composition of this text, consists of two publications from the Moda
Moldes Especial Plus Size magazine, which are part of a set of model practices on the body, putting into question the modes of subjectification of the fat woman in the fashion space.
