Abstract

The central concern of this article was to understand the life trajectories experienced intersectionally by women based on the concept of assemblage thinking in the production of their respective geographical contexts, specifically the reality of those who lived/live with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) in Presidente Prudente – SP, Brazil. For this study, the methodological articulation between Life History and Discourse Analysis (DA) was chosen, based on the production and analysis of qualitative data (childhood, youth, adulthood). This made it possible to interpret the meanings and connections produced by the research participants through the complex realities of space-time, content and agency shown in the narratives. The women who took part in the research dealt and interacted with different agents under the conformity produced by/within the geographical context, which showed constant changes in their fields of possibilities by highlighting their main events and turning points. This understanding makes us believe in the potential of using assemblage thinking and the geographical context as contributions to Geography, especially in fields committed to subjects, their cultures, bodies and their intersectionalities that allow us to read movement, the continuity of life, the new, the still unknown.
