Concepção de língua e o enunciador grammar nazi : uma análise discursiva de enunciados e sua emergência no período pandêmico

Abstract

In this thesis, it seeks to analyze statements regarding the conception of language, discursive behavior known as grammar nazi, and linguistic constructions that aim to delegitimize the other through discourse in posts in the digital world. The research assumes that such posts are configured as a corpus of analysis of a formal nature, whose meanings are manifested from the researcher's perspective and his/her theoretical framework. From this perspective, the analysis aims to verify 10 posts that present a time lapse between them and a recurring emergency during the pandemic period. To this end, the theoretical framework is divided into four main parts: studies by Paveau (2013, 2021) on the notion of pre-discourses and the existence of a set of knowledge, beliefs, and practices configured in pre-discursive frameworks that can be discursively verified; the establishment of the monolingual paradigm (Canagarajah, 2013; Mignolo, 2012), of the nation-state and the national language and memory of language and identity (Canagarajah, 2013; Zolin-Vesz, 2016a, 2016b, 2018; Silva Sobrinho, 2008; Silva, 2000; Coracini, 2003; Evans, 2003), with the aim of discussing the creation of a memory of language and the delegitimization of the other in the identity process; the work developed in the area of language (Mignolo, 2012; Canagarajah, 2013; Cox; Assis- Peterson, 2006; Assis- Peterson, 2008; Zolin-Vesz, 2016a, 2016b; Cardoso, 2019), with the aim of understanding how the establishment of a concept of language can lead to the emergence of statements that urgently need to regain a feeling of security, stability and control. The guiding question sought to verify the pre-discursive frameworks directed at the materialization of the statements and how these are articulated as operators of sharing, transmission and circulation of meanings in social groups. Based on the results obtained, we conclude that the scenario of chaos and insecurity during the pandemic, like the crisis of Feudalism in the 18th century, led to the emergence of statements that suggested the protection of language, the delegitimization of the other through it, and the return to a sense of belonging and national identity with security.
