Resumo: Our purpose in this article is to observe miscegenation as a linguistic idea in the 19th century by analyzing the discursive production of Brazilian letters, here understood as the set of literary, anthropological and essayistic productions. Based on the dialogue between the History of Linguistic Ideas and the Discourse Analysis, regarding Michel Foucault’s contribution, it is our intention to demonstrate that there was a proposal to qualify the speech and writing of Portuguese in Brazilian territory based on racial criteria. We are based on works that relate language, race and theories of linguistics as seen in Trabant (2008), Poliakov (1974), Blikstein (1992) and Rajagopalan (2002). Then, we present miscegenation in the 19th century Brazilian framework based on contributions by Schwarcz (2012) and Alonso (2002). Finally, by observing the thematic pairs mixture and purity, unity and diversity, good language and bad language, we present the analysis of statements that deal with language and race, attributed to José Bonifácio, Junqueira Freire, José de Alencar, Antonio Henriques Nunes Leal and José Veríssimo. We end with considerations about miscegenation as a recurring linguistic idea in statements that deal with the Portuguese language in Brazil and its speakers and contradiction as an essential aspect of discursive production on this theme in the 1800s.

A partir do diálogo entre a História das Ideias Linguísticas e a Análise do Discurso a partir do referencial foucaultiano, é nosso intuito demonstrar que havia uma proposta de qualificação da fala e da escrita do português no território brasileiro a partir de critérios raciais. Fundamentamo-nos nos trabalhos que relacionam língua, raça e teorias da linguística, como visto em Trabant (2008), Poliakov (1974), Blikstein (1992) e Rajagopalan (2002). Em seguida, apresentamos a mestiçagem no quadro brasileiro oitocentista a partir de contribuições de Schwarcz (2012) e Alonso (2002). Por fim, pela observação dos pares temáticos mistura e pureza, unidade e diversidade, boa língua e má língua apresentamos as análises de enunciados que tratam de língua e raça, atribuídos a José Bonifácio, Junqueira Freire, José de Alencar, Antonio Henriques Nunes Leal e José Veríssimo. Encerramos com as considerações sobre a mestiçagem como uma ideia linguística recorrente nos enunciados que tratam da língua portuguesa no Brasil e de seus falantes e a contradição como aspecto essencial da produção discursiva sobre essa temática nos anos 1800.Associação Brasileira de Linguística2021-01-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontexto application/pdftext/xmlhttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/article/view/172510.25189/rabralin.v19i1.1725Revista da ABRALIN; V. 19, N. 1 (2020); 1-25Revista da ABRALIN; V. 19, N. 1 (2020); 1-250102-715810.25189/rabralin.v19i1reponame:Revista da ABRALIN (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)instacron:UFPRporhttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/article/view/1725/1991https://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/article/view/1725/1992Copyright (c) 2021 Allice Toledoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessToledo, Allice2021-01-08T13:13:26Zoai:ojs.revista.ojs.abralin.org:article/1725Revistahttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralinPUBhttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/oairkofreitag@uol.com.br || ra@abralin.org2178-76031678-1805opendoar:2021-01-08T13:13:26Revista da ABRALIN (Online) - Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)false
