Ancorada em minhas experiências de campo na comunidade de mineiros de carvão de Minas do Leão (RS) - e também na Lorena francesa -, analiso neste artigo a dimensão da subjetividade do pesquisador, considerando os estudos de Devereux (1980) sobre as "observações recíprocas" que se operam entre etnógrafo e nativos e as perturbações mútuas daí derivadas, que remetem a conhecimentos específicos sobre a interação. As reflexões consideram minha condição de gênero, de ser uma mulher investigando um universo masculino, e se alicerçam ainda em diferentes dimensões de minha trajetória e nos ecos que essas identidades suscitam entre meus interlocutores. Adotando a noção de "ser afetado" (être afecté) proposta por Favret-Saada (1990), exploro ainda os insights suscitados por sonhos em diferentes contextos da pesquisa, reveladores de novos aspectos acerca da experiência etnográfica. Anchored in my experiences of field in the community of coal mining of Minas do Leão city (RS) - and also in the French Lorena -, I analyze in this article the dimension of the subjectivity of the researcher, considering the studies of Devereux (1980) on "specific comments" that ethnographer and natives are operated between and the mutual disturbances derivatives of this, that they send the specific knowledge on the interaction. The reflections consider my condition of gender, of to be a woman investigating a masculine universe, and still strengthen in differents dimensions of my trajectory and the echoes that these identities excite between my interlocutors. Adopting the notion of "to be affected" (être afecté ) proposal for Favret-Saada (1990), I still explore insights excited by dreams in differents contexts of the research, revealers of new aspects concerning the ethnography experience
