GÊNERO E DISCURSO: CONSTRUÇÕES IDENTITÁRIAS DE UMA REFUGIADA

Abstract

: This paper analyses an excerpt from an interview with a Venezuelan refugee who lives with her family in a shelter in Boa Vista - Roraima. The analysis of discursive strategies and resources used by her in the meeting set up a game of light and shadow. In this game, she projects the other (her husband, who is absent from the interaction) in the spotlight as an agent who refracts the stereotype of a refugee, while she herself is relegated to the shadows.
