This paper develops a research about the discursive (des)construction of humoristic tales by Verissimo, published in Comédias da Vida Privada Edição Especial para Escolas. First of all, we made a reflexion about the conceptions of sociocognitive-discursive theory, based, mainly, in Koch, Koch and Travaglia, Koch and Elias, Kleiman and Moraes and Kleiman researches. In this chapter, we refer to the lecture processing theories and to the textuality conditions, inserted, in this case, references to the knowledge systems, to the concept of script and to the exploration of semantic level proposed by Valente. Then, we go on the humor investigation, showing a brief analysis, the pragmatics aspects inherent to the theories and, more specifically, the Humor Semantic Scripts Theory (Raskin) and the Informativeness Theory (Giora). After that, we discussed, based, specially , in Marcuschi, Kleiman, Koch and Elias and Koch and Vilela lectures, the issue of gender, of narrative superstructure and, although superficially, because it is not the purpose of our research, the border among the tale and the chronicle. In the data analyzed, we confirm the semantic opposition and its relevant expressive resource of humor in the tales studied, and this led us to believe in the possibility to extend the analysis tools to others Luis Fernando Verissimo papers, to humoristic texts of others authors and even to the non-humoristic texts. We believe that our paper may represent a contribution to the teaching because it proposes a tool of text analysis applicable in Portuguese classrooms and to the academy, because there are a few scientific papers that explore humoristic long texts
