Polissemia nas tirinhas do personagem Armandinho: leitura e produção de sentidos.

Abstract

The expressive resources of the language are linguistic-discursive instruments necessary for the development of learning, something abandoned in the day-to-day of mother-tongue classes, as the conception of reading, such as decoding, predominates. To break with this perspective, this paper aims to analyze polysemy resources in comic sequences by Armandinho, published in a large circulation newspaper, demonstrating the discursive game of polysemic resources, materializing the concept of reading as an activity of production of meanings. As a theoretical framework, it focuses on Cançado (2012), Perini (2005), Ullmann (1987), Sandmann (1990). Qualitative based research, dedicated to deepening the treatment of polysemy in elementary school, with a descriptive research bias, because, in a sampling way, there are possibilities for approaching the theme in the selected corpora. The analysis of resources and their produced meaning effects, such as irony, social criticism and, consequently, humor, is more fruitful, to train critical readers effectively.
