| Sumario: | This reseach aims to study the production of the subjectivity on the institutional context of a Catholic Seminary. This is a boarding school in which 70 seminarists study Philosophy for 3 years, as a preparatory activity to priesthood. The way of being of the institutional life was researched through the participating observation and half-structuredinterviews were carried on in order to make out how the seminarist experiences his life on the institutional context. The preliminary outcome shows that we can understand the seminary as a total institution, a placecomprising residence, work, study, background, sociability and entertainment, where lots of people living alike but apart from the well-off society lead a reclusive life and formally administrated. Life in theinstitutional context of the Seminary brings about several facets of subjectivity to the seminarist. There is a deep loss on the personal autonomy, freedom of going out and coming back, acting and deciding as well, causing a behavior of excessive dependence, resistence of changing, conversion to the proposed role and fratenal rivalry. The contradiction found between the repressive apparatus and the participating speech seems to cause the people characteristics set byfragmentation and refusal. |
