The dissertation is based on the understanding that digital technologies deeply permeate contemporary reading and writing practices, making it essential to analyze how these transformations affect the teaching of Portuguese Language. In this context, the emergence of new genres highlights the need to investigate how textbooks have incorporated such resources. According to Ribeiro (2018), digital technologies can enable more effective teaching practices. However, despite the increasing presence of these resources in the educational context, linguistic analyses aimed at teaching Portuguese that value digital genres as significant aspects of teaching practices are still recent. Thus, the motivation to analyze how digital genres are addressed in Portuguese textbooks arises from the influence of digital technologies on the lives of students in the final years of elementary school. Thus, the importance of studies on genres is highlighted, especially regarding the teaching of the Portuguese language and the analysis of the treatment given to digital genres in educational materials. The theoretical conception adopted in this work is initially based on the socio-discursive and interactionist perspective, with an emphasis on the contributions of Bakhtin (1997); Bronckart (1999). Next, the sociocultural theoretical perspective is discussed, influenced by the studies of Swales (2005); Carolyn Miller (1984); Bazerman (2020). The main objective of this dissertation is to analyze the treatment of digital genres in Portuguese Language textbooks for the 7th and 8th grades of Elementary School Lower Secondary, investigating how these materials are being used to prepare students for digital discursive practices. This is because genres arising from the growing influence of digital technologies in society provide new forms of communication and interaction. For this, specific objectives are to identify the digital genres present in textbooks, based on the selection made by the book authors; to understand how digital genres are represented in the teaching material; and to relate the choice and treatment of digital genres to the assumptions of the theoretical perspectives of genres. The research adopts a qualitative approach, using, as a methodological technique for the analysis of textbooks, the criteria of Content Analysis. The corpus consists of textbooks for Elementary School Final Years, selected based on previously defined criteria, with the aim of analyzing the treatment given to digital genres in these materials. As a result, is can be concluded that, although the Portuguese Language textbook shows progress regarding the treatment of these genres, it still faces challenges in promoting an approach that effectively engages with the social language practices mediated by digital technologies, in order to support a more meaningful, contextualized teaching aligned with language practices mediated by digital technologies.

The study is grounded in the hypothesis that, within this intermedial process, the reader assumes an active role as a co-creator of meaning. The methodological approach combines textual analysis and adaptation studies—based on Hutcheon, Genette, and Clüver— with Reception Aesthetics (Jauss and Iser) and Eco’s theory of the Open Work, situated within the context of Lash’s reflexive modernity and convergence culture. The investigation examines how the graphic adaptation operates as an autonomous hypertext and how the reader’s horizon of expectations is reconfigured in the digital age through the figures of the prosumer, produser, and wreader. These emerge as key categories for understanding contemporary practices of read- ing and production, in which the boundaries between author, reader, and editor become increas- ingly porous. The study thus demonstrates how these hybrid subjects not only consume graphic narratives but also intervene in their circulation, interpretation, and resignification, contributing to the formation of dynamic and collaborative narrative ecosystems. Such figures constitute key analytical categories for understanding current reading and production practices, where the lim- its between author, reader, and editor grow progressively blurred. These hybrid subjects, be- yond consuming graphic or multimodal narratives, actively shape their circulation, interpreta- tion, and resignification, thereby fostering dynamic and collaborative narrative ecosystems. The empirical analysis of reception on specialized websites and YouTube channels revealed a ten- sion between the work’s programmatic openness, exemplified by the narrative mechanism of the Two-Man Con, and the accelerated stabilization of meanings in digital environments. The results indicate that, although the contemporary reader possesses active agency, the speed and consumption logics of platforms tend to favor standardized readings and the closure of inter- pretive gaps. It is concluded that the adaptation functions as a device that exposes the conflict between narrative complexity and the reception conditions imposed by the current media eco- system.

Situated within the field of Materialist Discourse Analysis, this research is grounded in the understanding that meaning is not confined to the interior of the linguistic sign, as if it were transparently accessible to subjects. Rather, it is the opacity of language, its failures, that inscribes equivocation, allowing meaning to be produced differently. From this perspective, freedom of speech is understood as having no fixed or stable meaning; its effects of meaning result from socio-historical and ideological processes that, under the production conditions imposed by the digital environment, place it within different regions of meaning. The digital space is thus conceived as a distinct space for language practices, shaped by visibility regimes and traversed by other institutions, whose functioning is driven by circulation (Dias, 2018). For our analytical gesture, we take the meme as a signifying materiality (Lagazzi, 2009), tensioned at the symbolic and the political intersection, mobilizing different effects of meaning through its affiliation with different regions of the memory and marking the dispute over meaning surrounding the word. The research corpus consists of memes and comments available on Elon Musk’s profile on X, collected between April and October 2024, encompassing moments both prior to and following the blocking of the platform in Brazil. To this end, we mobilize the concepts of interdiscourse, preconstructed meaning, discursive memory, digital memory, and discursive formation, among others, to compose the theoretical–methodological–analytical apparatus that, through the multiplicity of language, enables us to understand the discursive processes that affect the production of meaning in the digital materiality under analysis. This study thus points to the constitution of freedom as a symbolic object in a dispute permanently traversed by the political, whose functioning renders visible the ideological tensions that organize reading and visibility regimes in the digital space.

Considérer le contexte historique dans lequel se sont développés les mouvements d’avant-garde européens, et leurs théories respectives, est indispensable pour la construction d’un bon parcours d’analyse. Les œuvres littéraires et artistiques portent avec elles des traits de l’auteur et du milieu dans lequel il a été inséré, étant indispensable la prise en compte de ces éléments pour la profondeur et la valeur d’une œuvre. La présente étude a pour objectif d’analyser le roman Nadja (1928) d’André Breton (1896-1966), dans la perspective de l’œuvre d’art avant-gardiste, en considérant ses principales caractéristiques esthétiques et stylistiques. Le roman surréaliste Nadja (1928) possède dans sa structure des éléments qui indiquent l’utilisation de la technique d’écriture automatique, ou spontanée, et du montage, ainsi que des discours pertinents sur la période moderne, surtout à l’identité. Comme contribution théorique, nous réalisons la lecture de Peter Bürger (1936-2017), qui discourt en Théorie de l’avant-garde (1993) sur les principaux objectifs des mouvements d’avant-garde européens et leurs caractéristiques respectives; et Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), dans Auswahl in Drei Baenden (1987), sur la critique littéraire du XXe siècle. Les études sur l’identité moderne et ses problématiques respectives, discutées par Stuart Hall (1932-2014) dans The question of cultural identity (2006) et par Zygmunt Bauman (1925-2017) dans Identity (Converssation with Benedetto Vecchi) (2005), vont à la rencontre de la dialectique de la modernité présentée par Marshall Berman (1940-2013) dans All that is Solid Melts into Air (1986). La méthodologie appliquée à cette recherche est exploratoire et bibliographique. Nous concluons que le roman Nadja (1928) présente des éléments caractéristiques du surréalisme, à la foisstructurels et de contenu. L’ouvrage aborde également les brusquestransformations subies dans les milieux sociaux et urbains au XXe siècle, mettant en évidence les discussions sur la fragmentation de l’identité.
