It also examines how the chronicler portrays and appreciates the city of São Luís in the selected chronicles, with a central focus on investigating memory through these texts. For this purpose, it was essential to conceptualize the chronicle from the perspective of literary history and literary theory. Therefore, we drew upon the studies of literary critics such as Antonio Candido, Eduardo Portella, Massaud Moisés, and Jorge de Sá, whose respective theories were fundamental to the development and investigation of this work. In addition, we explored José Chagas’s chronicles, selecting those that refer to the city of São Luís. We also analyzed the chronicles in terms of their linguistic and literary characteristics within various discursive contexts. Subsequently, we investigated the presence of memory in Chagas’s chronicles. To this end, we considered the memorialist perspective in the chronicler’s work, based on the studies of Angélica Soares, Maurice Halbwachs, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Michael Pollak, and Paul Ricoeur. This extensive theoretical framework proved to be highly relevant in addressing memorialistic production. Thus, this research aligns with the idea that reflecting on memory through the chronicle and, consequently, through Maranhão literature means thinking with literature itself, embracing the reflection and writing that the chronicle offers through memory. The research is qualitative, grounded in the comprehensive development of this study. It consists of a content analysis investigation, with primary focus on the theorists and critics of the chronicle and memory presented throughout this research. It interprets, from literary, social, and philosophical perspectives, how such an approach is represented in the chronicles of José Chagas.

It also aims to analyze the presence of these expressions in the participants‘ linguistic repertoire. The theoretical and methodological foundations of this research are grounded in Sociolinguistics, based on the studies of renowned scholars such as Labov (2008) and Tarallo (1996). Dialectology and Lexicology also permeate the discussions presented here, particularly drawing on Cardoso, Mota and Mollica (2014) and Biderman (2001).The research is quantitative in nature, with qualitative data analysis, and was conducted through a questionnaire administered via Google Forms to 60 students, mostly aged between 15 and 17 years. The results show that a significant number of participants have internalized a reasonable level of Maranhês, as 44.5% of the expressions presented were recognized. However, this contrasts with a low percentage of effective use of this linguistic variety (9.6%), revealing a discrepancy between receptive and productive competence and suggesting the possibility of an ongoing process of language shift. The analysis of the data leads to the conclusion that knowledge of Maranhês, although reduced — mainly due to the effects of globalization — remains present in the participants‘ linguistic memory. However, its effective use has declined, indicating a weakening of its vitality as a social practice.

The theoretical foundation is based on studies by researchers in Critical Applied Linguistics, such as (Pennycook, 2001; Moita Lopes, 2006), as well as on authors in Critical Language Education, such as (Ferraz, 2018; Jacomini, 2024), Language Education with children with ASD (Ferreira, 2021), Language Education with children (Malta, 2019; Merlo, 2018; Tonelli, 2023), Language Education in/with Childhood (Tonelli; Selbach; Kawachi Furlan, Bailer, 2025), Alterity, Sensitivity and Ethics (Egido, 2022, 2024; Todd, 2014, 2016), among others. Its general objective is to identify constituent elements that may lead to a Critical Language Education in the context of English Language Education in Childhood. In order to achieve this purpose, two specific objectives were established: (i) to identify elements that promote Critical Language Education from the teacher’s perspective; and (ii) to identify elements that promote Critical Language Education from the family’s perspective. The guiding questions of this research are: 1 - Which elements promote Critical Language Education from the teacher’s perspective?; 2 - Which elements promote Critical Language Education from the family’s perspective? For the development of this research, we adopted a qualitative-interpretivist approach with an ethnographic orientation. As instruments for the generation of empirical material, we used semi-structured interviews and observations conducted in the context of the English language classroom. The participants in the study were an English language teacher, the mother of an autistic student, the student himself, and the researcher. In order to achieve the proposed objectives, the investigation was developed based on the methodological procedures of Paradigmatic and Syntagmatic Analysis, as outlined by (Reis, 2015, 2018; Capellini-Petreche, 2020). Among the results of the analyses, it was identified that aspects of Critical Language Education grounded in affectivity can contribute to breaking barriers frequently faced by students with ASD in the process of learning the English language, which are crossed by the particularities inherent to the child’s development. The research showed that a Critical Language Education supported by alterity, subjectivity and sensitivity can transform the ways in which subjects exercise their agency and construct perceptions about themselves and about others, favoring the strengthening of subjectivities and the development of alterity in the classroom context. In this way, this research indicates that there is hope and possibility of “bringing colors” to Critical Language Education, contributing to the construction of more human, sensitive and inclusive meanings for language.

The choice of this textbook is justified by the political and economic context of Brazil in the years 2000-2010, a period in which the government sought to project a specific image of the country and its identity on the international stage (Moreira, 2018). The main objective of this work is to analyze how this subject is enunciated (Foucault, 2008a), and the power mechanisms that permeate its possibility of emergence. The theoretical foundation is based on Michel Foucault's archeogenealogy, articulating archaeology – to unveil the conditions of emergence of this subject – and genealogy – to trace the power relations that sustain its constitution and permanence. From a methodological point of view, we selected a corpus composed of 11 statements that make up the New Avenida Brasil 1, present, respectively, in lesson 1, in the exercise book, in lesson 6, lesson 5, and lesson 6, which form three enunciative series (Foucault, 2008a) representative of the discursive constitution of the Brazilian working subject. These series construct an archive divided into three axes: the high-income Brazilian working subject, the low-income Brazilian working subject, and the silenced workers. The results show that the Brazilian subject is enunciated above all as a young, skilled, privileged, and white worker, reflecting and reinforcing discursive strategies aligned with the Brazilian political project of that historical moment.
