Discursos de celebração e estratégias de apagamento enunciativo Uso e sistema

Abstract

relationship between linguistic system and use is central to the construction of the discourses as communicative practices. This is the theoretical framework from which we propose to analyze how certain grammatical structures are at the service of strategies of enunciative erasure (French effacement énonciatif), as linguistic mechanisms where the voices of discourse are constructed but pretending that they do not exist. It is through the analysis of the structure Há quem X that we intend to show this interrelationship between discourse and system anchored in the concept of dialogism. Our objective is, specifically, to analyze the use of this structure as a discursive strategy of enunciative erasure, in a speech celebrating the Centenary of the Portuguese Republic, held in the Portuguese parliament. It stands out in the analysis that Há quem X is a complex dialogic structure, which serves a strategy of erasing the enunciative voice of the speaker, but also the erasure of other voices, an enunciative process with implications for discourse organization, namely argumentative and illocutionary dimensions, within the ongoing global process of referencing.
