From the field of philosophy as a lifestyle, and of social subjectivity and interpretation as an investigative task, I first analyze autobiographical accounts in relation to social action and its meanings, that is, social subjectivity. Then, I present a reflection on the reconstruction of personal experience during the story (and the role memory plays in this process), which culminates in the incorporation of myth, as a way of configuring the narrative from a highly plastic collective knowledge. I finish by presenting the methodological utility of the life story in a praxeological research.
