Resumo: The present work is the result of studies upon the appraisal system by Martin and White (2005). The corpus chosen to apply such theory is composed by comic strips of Mafalda, from the Argentinian writer Quino. The selection of this genre was based on how lexically low texts and the mixture of verbal and nonverbal language contribute to instantiate the appraisal system. Thus, this work aims to identify how the evaluations are instantiated, using appraisal as theoretical support. Firstly, five comic strips published in 2012 were selected. Secondly, the comic strips were analyzed according to the lexicogrammatical resources and some idiosyncratic expressions of each character in which evaluations were identified. Then, we analyzed how such evaluations take form: whether they are inscribed (explicit) or evoked (implicit). Afterward, a semantic-discursive pattern was noted: the evaluations, either inscribed or evoked, are frequent. Such evaluations are distinct among themselves because they carry, semantically, different values and beliefs that are placed to conflict, then, causing humor. As in a domino effect, the inscribed evaluations create the provoked ones, in which the author seems to direct his reader to a final evaluation upon the phenomenon he has placed in the comic strips.

Após seleção do gênero tira em quadrinhos, foram escolhidos exemplares de Mafalda, do autor argentino Quino. A escolha foi motivada pelas características dos textos: escassez lexical e mescla de linguagem verbal e não verbal (MENDONÇA, 2005), que contribuem para a realização do sistema avaliativo. O objetivo deste trabalho é identificar como as avaliações são realizadas, utilizando-se o aporte do Sistema da avaliatividade (MARTIN; WHITE, 2005). Para isso, foram escolhidas cinco tiras, publicadas em 2012. Primeiramente, os textos foram analisados, de acordo com os recursos léxico-gramaticais e algumas expressões idiossincráticas de cada personagem nos quais são evidenciadas características valorativas. A seguir, procurou-se delinear outras formas de avaliação, se inscritas ou evocadas. Após a análise, percebeu-se um padrão semântico-discursivo de avaliações, tanto inscritas como evocadas, que semanticamente, carregam consigo valores e crenças opostas que entram em conflito e causam humor. Como num efeito dominó, as avaliações inscritas dão origem a avaliações provocadas, nas quais o autor parece direcionar seu leitor a uma avaliação final do fenômeno cotidiano em jogo.PP/UFU2020-02-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/dominiosdelinguagem/article/view/4760210.14393/DL40-v14n1a2020-3Domínios de Lingu@gem; Vol. 14 No. 1 (2020): Athematic issue; 65-84Domínios de Lingu@gem; Vol. 14 Núm. 1 (2020): Número atemático; 65-84Domínios de Lingu@gem; v. 14 n. 1 (2020): Número atemático; 65-841980-5799reponame:Domínios de Lingu@geminstname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/dominiosdelinguagem/article/view/47602/27947Copyright (c) 2020 Ana Paula Carvalho Schmidt, Erick Kader Callegaro Corrêainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCorrêa, Erick Kader CallegaroSchmidt, Ana Paula Carvalho2020-02-11T18:19:31Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/47602Revistahttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/dominiosdelinguagemPUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/dominiosdelinguagem/oairevistadominios@ileel.ufu.br||1980-57991980-5799opendoar:2020-02-11T18:19:31Domínios de Lingu@gem - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
