The dissertation "Gula [Gluttony] Magazine: the formation of taste on discursive construction" intends to research how food discourses are constituted and how they are elaborated to form the tastes of contemporary individuals. The theoretical references are the studies of discursive semiotics, specially the contributions of the sociosemiotics about taste and the studies of habits and lifestyles. Therefore this study reflects how the media communication about food structures sociocultural values on its discourse. The object of analysis has been elected within the universe of the Gula's magazine covers, since it's beginning until 2008 December. The selection configures a time-line: the first cover (Special Premiere), the cover at the edition which celebrates its first anniversary (Gula No. 12), the cover at No. 150 (which is called the gluttony), closing with a commemorative edition of 15 years. Thus, through such editions, we intend to explore how the magazine structures their discourse trough time, focusing at values found therein. From the 1980's it is observed an expansion of the presence of the theme gastronomy at various media. Our central hypothesis infers that this expansion occurs from the exacerbation of the dismissal of the functional character of food, configuring aesthetics and consumption functions of food in terms of creating pleasure and as life experiences. The research can be divided into three stages. At first, this study reflects about the universe of media in which the magazine and their contextual, social, historical and semantically relationships are. The second stage is the analysis of selected covers of Gula, focusing on understanding the discursive procedures at communication and how it is built in the universe of its peers in contemporary Brazil. The third, focus on the analysis relationship with history, society and media, as well as the construction of taste and lifestyles at Gula's discourse and its peers in contemporary Brazil. The results point to a confirmation of the presented hypothesis
