Embates dialógicos em um país dividido: a responsividade das charges de Ivan Cabral no processo de impeachment de Dilma Rousseff. 2017. 117f.

This discursive genre allows a greater visibility of the author's opinion, that is, the "talking author" produces the thematic content carrying it ideologically and axiologically. The production of such concrete utterances (cartoons) is directed towards a listener / reader who is also historical and is also situated in a social environment, making this direction responsive to the reader, the situation and the facts. For this research, we take as theoretical reference the concepts coming from the Circle of Bakhtin in what concerns to dialogic relations, heterodiscursivity, positioning and dialogic clashes. To understand the laughter from the cartoon, we support our reflections in Bergson, Propp and Bakhtin. Given the specificity of the discursive cartoon genre, we sought to anchor our forays into the work of Ivan Cabral, Ramos, Eisner and McCloud. The corpus of this research are the cartoons produced by the potiguar cartoonist Ivan Cabral during the impeachment process of former president Dilma Rousseff, which occurred between December 2, 2015 and May 13, 2016. The research is part of the mestiza, frontier and indisciplinary Applied Linguistics whose objective is to build intelligibility on discursive practices, considering, for that, the subjects, the spheres of activity and the historicity of human interactions. The research analyzes the data constructed from the qualitative-interpretative perspective and the Ginzburg indicationary method, which turns to the signs, the signs that denounce meanings and positions. The results allow us to conclude that the charge, as a concrete statement, elicits responsiveness that allows to give visibility to the dialogic clashes between subjects situated and positioned, confirming that in the interaction subjects occupy places and positions from their world view and a set of values.Acesso AbertoCharges de Ivan CabralRelações dialógicasResponsividadeEmbates dialógicosEnunciado concretoImpeachment de Dilma RousseffmasterThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LINGUISTICA
