The Importance of Classics in the Formation of the Researcher: what says to us the concept of socialization, identification and intellectual field as field of power

Abstract

The objective of this theoretical article is defend the importance of reading of the classics in the process of formation and constitution of the subject as a researcher. We construct this defense by means of theoretical approaches related to the concepts of socialization, identification (which relates to the concept of identity); and by means of Bourdieusian notion of that intellectual field is a field of power. Throughout the discussion, we analyzed how, by means of socialization, there is an influence of the structure how of the subject itself in their constitution as researcher. By means of the concept of identification, we perceive the influence of the subjectivity of the researcher subject to the identify yourself or not with the classics that reads, choosing those who will be “their” classics. And, by means of the notion of the intellectual field as a field of power, we consider the existence of a science that is not disinterested and we defend the danger of  “apuds” and reading of translations of the classics. .
