Resumo: | The present work, product of part of a more comprehensive research not publicized yet, aims to investigate the rhetorical traces of neo-racism in opinion articles in the French newspaper Le Figaro inserted in the debate on immigration in France in the time lapse between the country's presidential elections in 2012 and 2017. At first, there was an attempt to quantitatively describe, through the Excel program, the 345 articles consulted from Le Figaro, according to some variables, questioning, in the present work, which is the main social group targeted in the rhetorical strategies of neo-racism and whether the article presents or not traits considered theoretically related to this type of rhetoric. Then, a qualitative and critical analysis of the results was carried out, with the help of categories from social sciences, such as the concept of neo-racism; as well as from language sciences, with the typology of the retort and ad personam argument, the concept of ethos, metaphor and epithet, and the contribution of the theory of faces. In the part of the research that concerns this article, some constants in the language of neo-racism were found (which may in the future be tested by other researchers through other corpora), such as “differentialist” and hierarchical reasoning, the retort argument, the denunciation of a supposed anti-white racism and, not necessarily, to a greater or lesser degree, other rhetorical traits, such as the use of manichean metaphors, the absence of polite strategies and a base anti-intellectualism/anti-academicism. |

Procurou-se, em um primeiro momento, descrever quantitativamente, com o auxílio do programa Excel, os 345 artigos consultados do referido jornal, segundo algumas variáveis, importando para este trabalho a variável sobre qual o principal grupo social visado nas estratégias retóricas do neorracismo e sobre se o artigo apresenta ou não traços considerados teoricamente relacionados a esse tipo de retórica. Em seguida, procedeu-se à análise qualitativa e crítica dos resultados, com o auxílio de categorias das ciências sociais, como o conceito de neorracismo; bem como das ciências da linguagem, com a tipologia do argumento da retorsão e ad personam; do conceito de ethos, epíteto e metáfora, e da contribuição da teoria das faces. Na parte da pesquisa que concerne a esta publicação, foram encontradas algumas constantes da linguagem do neorracismo (que futuramente podem ser testadas por outros pesquisadores por meio de outros corpora), como o raciocínio “diferencialista” e hierarquizante, o argumento da retorsão, a denúncia de um suposto racismo antibranco e, não necessariamente, em maior ou menor grau, outros traços retóricos, como o uso de metáforas maniqueístas, a ausência de estratégias de polidez e um anti-intelectualismo/antiacademicismo de baseAssociação Brasileira de Linguística2021-12-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionDossiês Temáticos 2021Textoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/article/view/190910.25189/rabralin.v20i3.1909Revista da ABRALIN; V. 20, N. 3 (2021); 113-135Revista da ABRALIN; V. 20, N. 3 (2021); 113-1350102-715810.25189/rabralin.v20i3reponame:Revista da ABRALIN (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)instacron:UFPRporhttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/article/view/1909/2537Copyright (c) 2021 Frederico Rios Cury dos Santosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Frederico Rios Cury dos 2021-12-07T19:50:38Zoai:ojs.revista.ojs.abralin.org:article/1909Revistahttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralinPUBhttps://revista.abralin.org/index.php/abralin/oairkofreitag@uol.com.br || ra@abralin.org2178-76031678-1805opendoar:2021-12-07T19:50:38Revista da ABRALIN (Online) - Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)false |
