O corpo do manifestante das Jornadas de Junho de 2013: a charge e o editorial da Folha de São Paulo

Abstract

On June 2013, the streets were taken by multitudes who wanted great economic, political and social reforms. This event was nominated June Protests. Our objective, in this paper, is to understand how the protester was constructed on and by print media . From the discursive semiotics and Bakhtin’s philosophy, our object of study is the discursive protester actors’ body. As methodology, we recover the protester actor’s discursivization process in two distinct genres: the charge and the editorial, both published by the newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo , on June 13th, 2015. As a result, we found that in the two genres different discursive strategies are used to sustain their axiological position about the protester actor.
