Historicamente e no senso comum, a mente e o corpo são vistos como entidades distintas, fazendo parecer que a vida mental e a vida do corpo possuem diferentes dinâmicas de funcionamento. Essa visão traz grandes consequências para como enxergamos o ser humano. Acredita-se, por exemplo, que preencher palavras cruzadas previne Alzheimer, ou que depressão é um problema estritamente psicológico.

Em “Literatura e Sociedade”, o crítico e professor Antônio Candido escreveu sobre a relação de influências e transformações constantes entre autor, obra e público. Ou seja, nenhuma produção artística, sobretudo a literária, é feita ou existe no vácuo: ao contrário, surge em diálogo com seu tempo, reagindo ou exercendo efeitos sobre ele.

O que define nossa concepção atual a respeito de um funcionamento mental desejável e socialmente aceitável? A que chamamos de "normal" (e será "normal" uma existência sem nenhuma "loucura")?

O período da infância e adolescência são cenário de elementos, afetos e transformações que definem e influenciam a formação da subjetividade deste ser em elaboração.

O termo tekoá se refere, num primeiro momento, a uma aldeia do povo tupi-guarani, mas, para além disso, diz respeito sobretudo ao modo de existir.

O curso apresenta as ideias e propostas dessa tradição a respeito da relação humana com a natureza e com si mesma, sobretudo nas dinâmicas de diferenças, de poder, da vida em comum e da memória como catalisadora de conhecimento.

Sem considerar as influências das relações intelectuais com a linguagem, a lógica e outros ramos do

Identidade e subjetividade são conceitos amplos, com implicações ainda mais extensas sobre a vida concreta - sobretudo num momento em que tais conceitos são questionados ou reelaborados sob lentes políticas e ideológicas. O curso parte destas ideias para tratar, com base na teoria psicanalítica, como se dá essa elaboração de uma "narrativa de si" e como ela afeta, para bem e mal, nossas relações com o mundo e os outros. O que é o desejo e como ele se constitui? De que formas esse eu se fortalece ou enfraquece? Essas e outras provocações serão abordadas ao longo deste curso.
