This dissertation examines Mémoire de fille (2016), by Annie Ernaux. Inscribed within the tradition of contemporary female authorship, Ernaux proposes an aesthetic weaving of memory in which the self emerges as both an individual and collective instance. The main objective of this study is to explore Mémoire de fille through the lens of autossociobiography – a subgenre of autobiography that intertwines personal experience with historical and social context – and of ekphrasis, understood as a narrative device that produces verbal images of the past. The specific objectives are: to analyze the dialogues between the work and the principles of autossociobiography; to reflect on the writing of the body and female sexuality, with emphasis on the experience of virginity loss; to investigate the aesthetic devices of remembrance, particularly ekphrasis; and to examine écriture plate as an aesthetic choice that allows facts to speak for themselves, without rhetorical ornamentation or explicit poetic effects. In this sense, the study seeks to understand how Ernaux constructs an aesthetics of recollection in Mémoire de fille, articulating the resources of autossociobiography, ekphrasis, and écriture plate to reinscribe female experience within autobiographical discourse. The methodology is based on textual and interpretative analysis, adopting an interdisciplinary approach supported by references from literary studies, autobiographical theory, and cultural studies, drawing on authors such as Philippe Lejeune (2008, 2010) and Jacques Lecarme and Éliane Lecarme Tabone (2015) in the field of autobiography; Simone de Beauvoir (2016), Michelle Perrot (2017), Stuart Hall (2005), Zygmunt Bauman (2013), and Terry Eagleton (2011) for studies on female authorship, identity, and sexuality; and Jacques Le Goff (1996), Henri Bergson (1999), Roland Barthes (2015), João Adolfo Hansen (2025), and Álvaro Cardoso Gomes (2015) for reflections on memory and imagery. The dissertation is organized into two main parts: the first dedicated to writings of the self, encompassing two chapters on autobiographical and sexual theories; and the second comprising three chapters focused on the formal devices of Ernaux’s writing.
