COMO LER AS MANIFESTAÇÕES VERBAIS DOS QUADRINHOS? — UMA

Abstract

The diversity of significant systems in cooperation / competition in comic strips, where image is said to be dominant, cannot obliterate or invalidate what is strategic, or curious in their difference, that is imposed by linguistic constituents. Comic strips are here seen as a multi-significant writing practice, which is done, undone and redone everyday by the ceaseless hands of a creative. The objective is to question word or letter manifestations, especially as a function of their meaning effects on comic strips producer and reader, here those occurring in the Ubaldo, the paranoic, speech, who is Henfil’s political character. Reflections start from the hypothesis that verbal is constituent of comic strips language plot, but with inalienable and essential character for allowing to reach, before the establishment of meaning, other relations of the discursive functioning, where letter / word next to the image, graphic forms etc. particularly interact.
