Abstract

This article aims to describe and analyze this polyphony in the poem The implosion of the lie Affonso Romano de Sant'Anna, according studies by Jean-Claude Anscombre e Oswald Ducrot (1994), Oswald Ducrot (1987, 1988), Marion Carel (1997, 2005), Carel and Ducrot (2005, 2008). We start from the premise that the polyphony is a resource a sense argumentative discourse in the poem and thus contributes to the mediation and reading comprehension of the subject.  By linking the theory of polyphony to the Theory of Semantic Blocks (TBS), the same authors, presents different aspects of a block as the semantic representation of the polyphonic discourse. The block evokes semantic argumentative chains (segments joined by connectors donc or pourtant), which are responsible for different points of view present in the utterance (polyphony), with which the speaker disagrees, identifies and / or assumed. We analyzed the statements presented in statements of the poem and the speaker's position in relation to them, and then selected semantic blocks from the square was built for the global sense argumentative discourse in the poem. The analysis shows the possibility of aspects related to mediation and reading comprehension between, and become a motivator for the development of studies on reading and contribution to the cultural background of the individual and society.
