title: TRAJECTORIES OF A VIRAL TEXT IN DIFFERENT COMMUNICATIVE EVENTS: ENTEXTUALISATION, INDEXICALITY, IDENTITY PERFORMANCES AND ETHNOGRAPHY

description: ABSTRACT Based on an ethnographic study, this paper analyses the trajectory of a viral text though different communicative events. We aim at examining the recontextualisation processes of a video by Luisa Marilac – a trans-woman who identifies herself as a transvestite – in the identity performances of Luan - a black gay young man -, in Web 2.0 interactional practices and in his classroom. The focus is on language-in-movement as sociointeractional action, which is permeated by indexical values. These, on their turn, point to larger scale social phenomena. This research is guided by performance, entextualisation and indexicality theories and relies on a multi-sited ethnography. In the analysis, we have tried to understand how fragments of the video by Luisa Marilac are recontextualised in Luan’s interactions with his classmates and with his Facebook friends. The analysis points out that the study of the circulation of a text offers different possibilities of accessing identification processes, social hierarchies and power relations, which constitute contemporary interactional practices.

title: RHETORICAL-DISCURSIVE PERSPECTIVES FOR THE STUDY OF PATHETICIZATION

description: ABSTRACT Taking as a starting point some reflections on the pathetical dimension of discourse, this article focuses the discussion of the three rhetorical modes of persuasion – logos, pathos, and ethos – in an attempt to argue in defence of their integration, with contribution from the new rhetoric, sophistics and the semiolinguistic theory of discourse. Refusing the dichotomous perspective of the Cartesian paradigm, our main purpose is to draw attention to the need to reconfirm a relationship of interdependence between pathos and logos. To illustrate our proposal, after a theoretical exposition on the subject, we analyse excerpts from a journalistic chronicle in the hope of confirming the legitimacy of the subject under consideration and the need for more consistent debates and demonstrations. Once the categories of intergenericity and metaphor have been chosen as discursive structures representative of the logos, the analysis allows us to observe their deploymenting in the effects of patemization, considered here as meaning effects.

title: FOREIGN STUDENTS AND THEIR LEARNING SPANISH PROCESS: FIRST HINT OF TRANSLANGUAGING

description: ABSTRACT This article is about the study of translanguaging in the sociolinguistic performance in a group of 22 foreign students who acquire Spanish as a foreign language in a Colombian University. This article explains translanguaging as a strategic resource that refers to the combination of changes so happens, from the translation, changing code-switching and language-switching, for that reason it is defined in the process of learning a language other than the mother tongue, in this case Spanish. Data were collected through direct observation recorded in a field journal. Semi-structured interviews were conducted from the sample of participants and artifacts were used by the students in their learning process of the Spanish lessons. Data were analyzed inductively by certain categories of analysis from the concepts, issues and relationships, in order to give optimal answer to research questions. Concluding that translanguaging is a phenomenon that greatly influences the development of the foreign language.

title: CHARACTERIZATION OF TEMPORAL COMPLEMENTARITY: FUNDAMENTALS FOR MULTI-DOCUMENT SUMMARIZATION

description: ABSTRACT Complementarity is a usual multi-document phenomenon that commonly occurs among news texts about the same event. From a set of sentence pairs (in Portuguese) manually annotated with CST (Cross-Document Structure Theory) relations (Historical background and Follow-up) that make explicit the temporal complementary among the sentences, we identified a potential set of linguistic attributes of such complementary. Using Machine Learning algorithms, we evaluate the capacity of the attributes to discriminate between Historical background and Follow-up. JRip learned a small set of rules with high accuracy. Based on a set of 5 rules, the classifier discriminates the CST relations with 80% of accuracy. According to the rules, the occurrence of temporal expression in sentence 2 is the most discriminative feature in the task. As a contribution, the JRip classifier can improve the performance of the CST-discourse parsers for Brazilian Portuguese

title: “TO EACH ONE WHAT SEEMS BEST TO HER/HIM”: DEBATE AND CONTROVERSY AROUND THE PARAMETRIC SOCIOLINGUISTICS IN THE HISTORY OF BRAZILIAN LINGUISTICS

description: ABSTRACT This article analyzes a debate in the Brazilian linguistics of the 1980s, when Fernando Tarallo, José Borges Neto and Ana Lúcia de Paula Müller differed on a parametric sociolinguistics. In the perspective of a study of the Historiography of Linguistics and based on a socio-rhetorical framework of analysis, which defines theoretical and methodological guidelines of this proposal, the text presents (i) considerations about what is understood in this interpretation as rhetoric and (ii) a historiographic analysis of the debate. This analytical view considers for its interpretative perspective discursive elements of the discourses adopted in the debate (that is, the rhetoric assumed by the linguists), and also elements of a social nature, which can circumscribe the discourses in specific groups of researchers (theory groups) in language science in Brazil. It is pointed out that the debate in question, several times referenced when it comes to a history of Brazilian linguistics, maintained its polemical nature, evidencing that the rhetoric of linguists, when assumed by the historiographic view, must be understood from of its social and historical inscription.

title: TEXT PRODUCTION IN HIGHER EDUCATION: REDISCUSSING TEACHING-LEARNING PERSPECTIVES AND PROCEDURES

description: ABSTRACT This study aims to present and discuss the results of an interpretive qualitative study of the teaching-learning procedures used in a discipline exclusively focused on reading and production of academic texts under the Programa de Formação Interdisciplinar Superior (Profis) of State University of Campinas (Unicamp), from 2013 to 2016. As its theoretical basis, this study uses Vygotsky’s sociocultural perspective (2000, 2003) and, particularly, his concept of Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), together with the concepts of Mastery Learning (BLOOM, 1971), recursive feedback (COPE; KALANTZIS, 2016) and Scaffolding (BRUNER; ROSS; WOOD, 1976). The results show that if text production is submitted to a formative evaluation process of prospective and constructive character, with continuous feedback to students, there may be new ways to build knowledge which, developed with the help of more experienced people or through their own peers, can transform their potential development level, the one related to the abilities and achievements to be obtained by the students, into an actual development level, which concerns the achievements they have already accomplished.

title: PROPERTIES OF OUGHT-TO-BE DEONTIC MODAL

description: ABSTRACT In this article, we discuss different concepts of obligation based on the distinction originally established by Feldman (1986): (i) ought-to-be interpretation, which involves a property that a certain state of affairs must occur; and (ii) ought-to-do interpretation, which relates an agent to a state of affairs. We assume this conceptual distinction results from structural differences. In this line of argumentation, we follow authors like Brennan (1993) and Hacquard (2006, 2010). Since there is not yet a proposal of structural representation in the literature that contemplates the ought-to-be interpretation, we searched for evidence in Brazilian Portuguese to ascertain more precisely the position at which this deontic is structurally merged in order to generate its interpretation. We scrutinized factors such as the deontic’s orientation, its relation to other modal heads and also to tense and aspect categories. Our tests confirmed the existence of a high deontic (ought-to-be). This modal displays the properties of a directive speech act, being oriented towards an agent in the speech situation (usually the addressee), and it does not bear aspect or tense markers. Even though ought-to-be deontics do not share all these properties with the epistemics, there is evidence that they occupy the same position in the structure. Lastly, we also suggested that ought-to-be, ought-to-do deontics and epistemics can be distinguished based on two features: agentivity [Ag] and assertion [Assert].

title: STRESS PLACEMENT IN –MENTE ADVERBS IN PORTUGUESE: DISCUSSION OF PROSODIC AND RHYTHMIC ASPECTS

description: ABSTRACT This article aims to discuss the prosodic behaviour of adverbs ending in –mente in Archaic Portuguese (AP) and Brazilian Portuguese (BP) from the perspective of Prosodic and Metrical Phonology. In order to describe the prosodic status of such adverbs, especially in AP, 420 cantigas [a genre of poetry], known as Cantigas de Santa Maria (CSM) in praise of Virgin Mary, were chosen, as well as 1251 secular cantigas (510 cantigas de amigo, 431 cantigas de escárnio e maldizer and 310 cantigas de amor). On the other side, a selection of the “Cospus Online do Português” [Online Corpus of the Portuguese Language] database, jointly elaborated by Georgetown University’s researcher Michael Ferreira and Brigham Young University’s Mark Davies, was chosen as the corpus of study of BP. The collection and analysis of –mente adverbs in the corpora made it possible to conclude that these adverbs are, from a prosodic point of view, compounds (having a primary and a secondary stress) both in AP as well as BP, since they can be considered structures formed by independent parts of each other, in which the Stress Placement Rule operates in different domains: in the already inflected bases and in the –mente “suffix”.

title: COGNITION, STEREOTYPE, IMAGINATION AND FANTASY IN THE PROCESS OF APPREHENDING THE NEW REALITY THROUGH THE CASTELLAN LEXICON: THE TESTIMONIES OF CRONISTAS DE INDIAS

description: ABSTRACT The Crónicas de Indias is a miscellaneous world with information about America colonization: letters, autobiographies, natural histories, which invite us to revisit the philology, where language, literature, history, anthropology fit equally. The works developed so far reached divergent conclusions. We have proposed to unite language, literature and, also, history and anthropology. All these texts are useful to refer their content to the penetration of the indigenous lexicon into the Castilian language -and vice versa-, with identity, cultural exchanges and understanding-representation-cognition of the world. We will systematize -from its heterogeneity- the data coming from the Chronicles marking six phases in the adaptation process, according to the lexicographical theory, which will culminate with the incorporation of the indigenous word into the Spanish lexicon (semasiological, onomasiological and cognitive fields). These testimonies show the very essence of linguistic cognition. It is noted that, first, each language is adapted to represent its environment reality. When a new reality appears, previously unknown, the problems begin: language is insufficient to apprehend it. Until reaching the specific autochthonous word, there will be multiple search attempts to adapt cognition and language, which will culminate with the incorporation of the borrowed word with the cognitive load that it possesses.
