THE DIALOGIC EROTISM IN MARIO VARGAS LLOSA’S BOOK GREETINGS TO THE STEPMOTHER

Abstract: Using studies about erotism (Bataille, Baudrillard and Maingueneau) and dialogism explored by Bakhtin, we proposed to analyze the parafrastic dialogic mechanism which is focused by Fucs and Afonso Romano de Sant’Anna. We aimed to research the Mario Vargas LLosa’s book Greetings to the Stepmother. In this book, verbal and visual establish an insistent dialogue, due to the fact that every two chapters are opened by a classical painting. This painting is a summing and anticipating paraphrase of the verbal conditional which is coming after and it places a fundamental role Llosa’s production since the reiteration of the same – different languages but with the same sense – is the way through which the book goes on.   Keywords: Erotism. Seduction. Dialogism.  

Dialogism between the Brothers Grimm and Chico Buarque: revisiting classic children's stories

The act of narrating stories and recreate the world of fantasy, as well as discuss the human condition, are essential dimensions of the stories for the infant universe. Reading, analysis and production of children's stories in educational settings assist in the cognitive, social and emotional development of children-readers. Therefore, the dialogic and interactive approach of texts has been the subject of several debates in literary studies, linguistic and, in general, in education. From the foregoing, I discuss initially concepts linked to the dialogic conception of language from the theoretical postulates of Mikhail Bakhtin (1997) and students of Bakhtinian perspective in the national context (FARACO, 2001; BRAIT, 2005). Like this, the objective of this research is to propose a dialogue between children's narratives “The Musicians of Bremen” (1812) of the Brothers Grimm and “The Mummers” Chico Buarque (1977). In this sense, I present a contextualized approach these stories, trying to rescue the origin of fairy tales and its consolidation in the medieval context. The methodology consists of a qualitative approach, from theme analysis of tnarrativas. ale and fable - objects of this study - seeking to highlight the similarities and differences as well as the social representations, political and cultural present in these narratives.

THE ELDERLY IN TWO ADVERTISING: A DISCURSIVE ANALYSIS

 The advertisements are a discursive genre that are meant to promote a brand, product or service attracting investors and / or customers. Its constitution strategies are varied: ranging from humor to the controversy. This feature allows each advertisement reaches the public in a different way, generating empathy, moving reviews, discussions etc. Because of this social relevance, this study aims to analyze two advertisements of Havaianas sandals, aired on television and the internet, in the months of August and September 2009. These pieces had as main character an elderly: (i) in the first interaction situation with his granddaughter; and (ii) the second to the viewer. In the latter, referred to the answer given by the public on the contents of the first piece. The interest in these parts is related to the controversy generated about the old character and his speech. From the interactionist perspective, based on the conceptual framework of Bakhtin and his Circle, proposes to examine the discursive process initiated by the enunciation of these parts in order to describe elements rooted in shared social knowledge about the elderly. Thus, we mobilized the concepts of dialogism, interaction and axiological concepts of discourse. The analysis of the specimens shows that the representation of the elderly as a partner responsible for a more liberal discourse on emotional and sexual life is not yet part of the social horizon of the Brazilian public. His appearance generates dialogue with the public (albeit to receive criticism) that concerns this brand interactions.

BAKHTINIAN CONCEPTS IN THE WRITTEN TESTABSTRACT

The study discusses the way the bakhtinian concepts are used and developed in the construction, application, production and assessment in the written test during the university entrance examination. The concepts underlying the written production in that situation are: its purpose, the interlocutors involved, the genre to be observed, the social circulation of that genre, its textual support and the author’s position. Analyses of samples of texts written by candidates demonstrate that the use of those concepts in the instructions for the test allows the production of texts with authorship signs. Those signs show up as a result of the dialogic process in the written production.

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.

Discourse genres, dialogism and hybridism

Based on a(n) (in)transdisciplinary view, we aim at discussing the relationship between utterance and hybridism upon Bakhtin’s Circle perspective (BAKHTIN, 2003[1979]; 1998[1975]; 2008[1963]; BAKHTIN/VOLOCHÍNOV, 2006[1929]; MEDVIÉDEV, 2012[1928]), by objectiving to construct a comprehension concerning the hybrid genres, in special, to this present study, the hybrid genres from the journalism sphere. To do so, we follow an epistemological, theoretical and methodological way in accordance with Bakhtin’s Circle studies and we selected utterances from the talk show discourse genre. We believe that the study is relevant, because it doesn’t only confirm the importance to join dialogues between Applied Linguistics and Discourse Analysis, in terms of ratifying the permeability among the disciplinary boundaries in order to understand the social life (MOITA LOPES, 2006) but also it contributes to sediment plural views about discourse genres in bakhtinian analysis of discourse/utterance.

DIALÉTICA POLIFÔNICA EM A CARTOMANTE, DE MACHADO DE ASSIS

Dialética Polifônica em A Cartomante , de Machado de Assis, é um estudo sobre polifonia e dialogismo, que tem como base teoria Mikhail Bakhtin e a analise do Discurso. Neste artigo analisamos a relação das personagens Rita e Camilo em oposição com a personagem da cartomante. Esta, representa o mundo profano e marginal e aquelas, o mundo aristocrático e instituído socialmente. Nesta relação, temos o cruzamento destes dois mundos, que coexistem mutuamente, ainda que às escondidas. Neste trabalho, fazemos, pois, a análise das diversas vozes existentes no conto e principalmente a voz da cartomante, que embora pertença ao mundo profano, dita o comportamento daqueles que pertencem à sociedade aristocrática.

Um Narrador “Quase” Oral

O propósito deste artigo é identificar marcas do narrador de tradição oral na obra literária Quase de verdade, de Clarice Lispector, destinada ao público infanto-juvenil. Como âncora teórica, deteve-se, especificamente, no narrador da tradição oral defendido por Walter Benjamin (1994), e que se encontra na iminência de desaparecer. Observou-se que o cão Ulisses, narrador da produção literária clariceana, selecionada para este estudo, apresenta diversas características da oralidade, culminando assim em evidente dialogismo com as especificidades do narrador benjaminiano.
