Here, the discipline of Michel Foucault, the place of Henri Lefebvre, the symbolic interaction of Erving Goffman in the total institutions, the concept of the acoustic space of Marshall McLuhan, the theoretical framework of the movement of the ideas developed by David Le Breton on the skin/body and the individual’s self-suffering, the distinction between the disciplinary practices predicted by the total institution to the body and the circumstances experienced/controlled; the physical, material, psychological, social and cultural environment in which the body is formed is analysed; the question of the psychoso-human interference of the prisoner body, the experience of the body, and the form of the body.
