| Sumario: | This paper aims to analyze how the appearance of a person is shown, from the viewpoint of Erving Goffman, in the virtual social network Facebook, since it is considered and developed in the text, that in this social network, an extension of the person is built up.This approach commences from the distinction and construction of a micro-macro link to anchor in the Canadian author's approach.In the second part of the text, based on the categories of Goffman's work, especially in his book The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life, they will be related to different interactions observed in Facebook, to show that face to face interaction can be given on-line.The text closes with some thoughts from the analysis, ranging from the constraints of a type of virtual interaction to the importance of sociological research open to a winding pathway for sociology itself. |
