THE DISCOURSE GENRE LITERARY MEMOIRS: A CRITICAL READING OF JOÃO UBALDO RIBEIRO’S BOOK MEMOIRS FROM A BAKHTINIAN PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

This article presents an investigation about the writing of the discursive genre literary memories, its social function and the linguistic-discursive characteristics from the perspective of Bakhtinian dialogic analysis. In addition, this study signals the marks that define the materiality of the genre, using, for this, the text Memória de Livros, by João Ubaldo Ribeiro. The theoretical support used is the Bakhtinian theory, with emphasis on language, language and discursive genres. After that, we focus on the methodological orientation presented by Bakhtin (2000, 2016), Voloshinov (2017) and Medvedev (2012), and its application to the chosen genre. In addition to the studies developed by Bakhtin (2000, 2004) and Voloshinov (2017), our work also supports the works of Clara, Altenfeder and Almeida (2010), Lima (2009), among others. Based on the research carried out, we came to the conclusion that discursive genres are instruments that mediate social actions for the purpose of interaction, built by active entities and participants in the world of social interactions.
