A Responsividade do leitor no gênero “Carta do Leitor” na mídia impressa de referência: Análise de polêmicas discursivas na perspectiva bakhtiniana

摘要

This paper aims to present part of a research, developed at a post-doctoral level, whose purpose is to investigate the answerability of the reader in the genre “readers letters” in concrete utterances published in the newspapers Folha de S. Paulo and O Estado de S. Paulo and Veja magazine. The study considers specifically the refracted speeches marked by open and veiled polemics, achieved by the readers of each of the media, in view of the architectonics constitutive of concrete utterances. The analytical focus will center on how readers polemize with speeches representative of the established political spheres, observing a context of political transition characterized by the last military government. With this end in view, we selected letters published, concurrently in those three vehicles in the first half of February 1980, in order to observe the events that were reported in the three media corporations.
