Resumo: | Taking the whole European Union (EU) as background, the present study discusses the way a corpus of English language media articles has represented the 2009-2016 crisis and austerity policies in Poland and Portugal, the home countries of the authors. The selected corpus comprises 68 articles from mainstream English language media, namely the newspapers The Financial Times, The Guardian, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journaland the economics magazine The Economist. The theoretical framework draws on the Bakhtinian notions of polyphony and heteroglossia, as well as on Gramsci's theory of hegemony. It thus juxtaposes and interprets the different voices and conflicting meanings within crisis discourses, relating them to issues of power and ideology. The Conclusion shows that despite rhetorical diversity, common politically contingent voices were identified which underpin the discourses dominating the crisis narrations in these two economically and geographically distant countries of the European Union. |

O corpus selecionado compreende 68 artigos de media de referência em língua inglesa, nomeadamente os jornais The Financial Times, The Guardian, The Wall Street Journal e a revista de economia, The Economist. O enquadramento teórico apoia-se nos conceitos Bakhtinianos de polifonia e heteroglóssia, assim como na teoria da hegemonia de Gramcsi. Assim, justapõe e interpreta as diferentes vozes e significados discordantes presentes nos discursos sobre a crise, relacionando-os com questões de poder e ideologia. A Conclusão mostra que, apesar da diversidade retórica, se identificaram vozes comuns politicamente contingentes, as quais sustentam os discursos dominantes sobre a crise nestes dois países da União Europeia, geográfica e economicamente distantes entre si.(undefined)Universidade do Minho.
