<b>Effect through the argumentative organization in semantic blocks</b> - DOI: 10.4025/actascilangcult.v31i2.6594
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the argumentative relation a speaker holds with his saying. This is done within the framework of Theory of Argumentation within Language developed by Ducrot and collaborators, which postulates that meaning is in the language and that it is argumentative. By applying the concepts of polyphony and semantic blocks – the current stage of the theory – to a short story by Edgar Allan Poe, we intend to verify in what way the argumentative organization in semantic blocks guides the reader to a unity of meaning.Downloads
