Abstract

Aiming to contribute to language teaching in a Bakhtinian perspective of language, we propose in this article to show the dialogic relationships in utterances of online news genre, as well as the principle of alterity and responsivity that characterize the theoretical assumptions of the Circle of Bakhtin. The analysis of the pieces of news released in 2012 and 2013 concerning the political crisis caused by the threats made by North Korea against South Korea, the United States and Japan, establish a dialogue among the utterances, the cited discourses and the evaluative positions inherent to them. Furthermore, it allows us to observe that the concepts of Bakhtin's dialogic theory apply to both genesis and reception of texts, demonstrating its validity in relation to the active role played by the author and the reader. We concluded that a questioning approach as a driving force for a language teaching guided by the dialogue between the author, the text, the students and the teacher is a viable proposal to the dialogization of meaning in the classroom.
