Resumo: This study aims to construct a typology of language that has been used in a polemic to discriminate against a social group. The proposed typology was developed from a qualitative analysis of “The Rage and the Pride”, an article by Oriana Fallaci (2001), and uses the theory of social representations as its basis. We conclude that the polemicist uses her own forms to label and evaluate the other – in this case, Muslims. Employing particular lexicalizations and assigning actions to make evaluations are typical features for designating the other in Fallaci’s controversial discourse. Prescriptions are addressed solely to the own group, but their object is the way of addressing the other.
