A DISCURSIVE STUDY ON STATEMENTS THAT ROCKED THE BRAZIL IN 2013 YEAR

This paper aims to take a discursive study upon two widely repeated statements in the streets of Brazilian cities in June, 2013, when the rise of urban transportation costs caused popular demonstrations to begin. However, this rise of rates seems to have served as a mere trigger to mobilize citizens to add up other agendas to the demonstrations, such as the right to health, education, good public safety, as well as the corruption installed in the country. Thus, we sought to verify the effects of erupted in the statements “Come to the streets” and “The Giant has woken up”, used to summon the citizens subject to the fight and to leave the state of moral inertia to them history. From our point of view, these statements are a discursive event, because slip of a discursive domain to another and produce effects of citizenship and that another country was possible. In addition, they attest to the ideology material character in the language and operation of discursive memory, which enables not only the memory and repetition, but also the refutation and oblivion. By this bias, we take the city not as territorial extension, but as a large text that is given to read, that is, as a symbolic space in which history and the language are linked producing senses determined by application of the subject in memory networks and that claim by interpreting gestures.

Oedipos hermeneut – the poetic-ontological dimension of the tragedy

This work intends to dialogue with questions of Oedipus, the mythical character, brought about by Sophocles tragic drama. In his reflective journey in search of his being, especially in the play Oedipus Rex, Oedipus investigates its own path to death. We propose reflect the death as a condition of possibility for the emergence of Oedipus as from his own ruins. Thus, our assumption is that the uncovering Oedipus' truth culminate at the end of the play, with the death of one of his personas, one of the selves of character. The issue of the interpretation therefore is crucial, and it leads to the title of this work. Therefore Oedipus is a hermeneut in the extent that he interprets the enigma that structures his own mythical history.

THE GALICIAN-PORTUGUESE LYRIC AND THE 17TH-CENTURY LOVE POETRY: ARTS OF LOVE, SONGS AND WRITTEN SONGS

In this paper, we discuss important echoes of Galician-Portuguese lyric that remain in the 17th-century love lyric poetry produced in Portugal. In order to achieve this main objective, we highlight some specificities of the troubadours’ lyric and of the 17th-century poetry, particularly the fundamentally musical character of the troubadours’ songs as opposed to the fundamentally written character of the 17th-century poems. This contrast indicates that they are compositions from different times (predominantly the 13th and the 17th centuries) and produced according to distinct poetic conceptions. However, they are compositions which are also similar in many ways, and whose similarities, especially regarding the lyrical genre, point to similar quests for perfect practice of love, outlining “arts of love” understood as unsystematic precepts of loving which are practiced in poetry. In this article, we intend to show that these poetic loves are technically conceived and, as historical constructs, they differ from each other, since they are characterized by their peculiar moments of achievement. However, they are not isolated in the time. As mentioned above, the troubadours’ songs are essentially musical while the 17th-century poems, as indicated by the prevalent poetic preceptive in their time, are essentially written. Nevertheless, those trobar songs reverberate in these poems (“written songs”) and in both kinds we read and listen to similar precepts of love, as though we were in labyrinths of love echoes with no way out.

AND THEY LIVED HAPPY FOREVER AND EVER: the dialogical relationship in a advertising campaign by O Boticario

According to Bakhtin, the discourse is always the result f intercrossing with other texts and from them the collective aspect from the “I”, tagged by voices which join to each other in the discourse. One of the ways of putting different voices into the discourse is the stylization. In it, there’s the imitation of another discursive materiality, that implies a dialogue whose effects of meaning are convergent among them. As an effect, it’s gotten a bivoiced discourse in which echoes are listened from the discourse which stylizes and also from the one which was stylized. Based on this, this paper has as an objective to find out the dialogue, made by the stylization, that the chosen advertising campaign maintain with some of the known fairy tales. The theoretical foundation will be Bakhtin’s studies and reflexions (1997; 1998; 2011) about the language dialogical character and studies from people who studied his studies, such as Brait (2005; 2010), Fiorin (2006a; 2006b), among others. The research methodology was, based in the balkintinian dialogism concept, in the reading and search for the dialogical relationship and texts which have the advertising style in relation to the childish tales. As a result, it was gotten the confirmation that the advertisement is always a memory from other texts by its intertextual and interdiscoursive characteristics. So, when the speaker created the campaign from already known voices, id arouse an expectation in the interlocutor, with whom, a dialogue will be held that, consequently, will result in a response. In this case, the interlocutor interest by the announced product.
