Discurso e memória: os sentidos de família e casamento em postagens de casais homoafetivos no instagram

Abstract

In this work, based on the theoretical-methodological assumption of the materialist-based Discourse Analysis, we intend to analyze the way in which 09 images and 10 discursive sequences present between the pages @doisiguais and @nossoamorexiste of Instagram aimed at the LGBTQIA+ group spread ideologies about the marriage and family. For this, we will identify the discursive formations about marriage and family involved in the posts selected as discursive materiality, to discuss the processes of production of meanings, in the socio-historical position given to the notion of discursive formation, through ideology, determining what can and should be told. In the scope of this work, we are also interested in understanding the functioning of discursive memory, which is understood not as a memory of an individual subject, but as a historical memory that allows filling in the gaps of the implicit. The objective is to analyze, through memory, regularity, repetition in relation to the meaning of family and marriage, observing how such meanings circulate other meanings, such as, for example, from the resumption of elements of heterosexual relationships. As, also, we are interested in analyzing the body and the image as discourse. The relevance of the theme is to give visibility to the silenced subjects, problematizing the discourses and meanings produced on Instagram, as well as the need to problematize the way in which the image and discursive sequence constitute meanings for marriage and for the family, and how they occur through reproduced/silenced speeches, currently, as well as its role in society. Thus, for this theoretical current that considers language not only as a structure, but also as an event based on historical materiality as a relatively autonomous system, and discourse as effects of meanings between points A and B, these points being considered the representation of subject in the discursive sphere, marriage and family become common, that is, a relationship between subjects who share a common point of view that defines an object from a similar perspective, constituting a necessary point, new meanings about marriage and family. Therefore, the results obtained in the work show that marriage and family are configured in other ways, breaking with the stabilized, when considering the production conditions and the subject's position in the discursive sphere.
