O caderno rosa de Lori Lamby, de Hilda Hilst, sob a perspectiva da Análise Crítica do Discurso e da Multimodalidade

Abstract

Coming across the opening pages of O Caderno Rosa de Lori Lamby (1990) is not an easy task for any reader. What you find at first are sexual experiences narrated in such a natural and naive way by a child protagonist, that the shock caused by the initial contact with the book ends up inhibiting most readers who want to make a more detailed analysis of the work. Given these considerations, this research intends to examine, from the perspective of Critical Discourse Analysis and Multimodality, how linguistic mechanisms and images interact and integrate to transmit a sensitive and complex message through the eyes of an eight-year-old child. deity. In order for the objectives to be achieved, I will start with an analysis of the verbal language used by the writer in her work, using the Systemic-Functional Grammar of Halliday (1994) and Halliday and Matthiessen (2004; 2013), where the focus will be on the metafunction ideational. For the purposes of analyzing the images present in the work, I use Kress and van Leeuwen (2006; 2021) multimodality as a basis in order to discover the level of interaction and complementation between the textual and imagetic levels. Finally, I analyze the ideological, hegemonic, sociocultural and identity issues present in the work, explicitly or implicitly, based on studies of ACD, by Fairclough (1994; 2003; 2006). Through analysis, we observed that both text and images play an essential role in transmitting the sensitive and complex message addressed in the book. The relationship between these elements is deeply intertwined, contributing to the understanding and impact of the story.
