Aspectos morfossintáticos em mebengôkre: transitividade e marcação de argumentos
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-08-20) GOMES, Edson de Freitas; GALUCIO, Ana Vilacy Moreira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3697197245602067; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0168-1904
The canonically marked subject in Mẽbêngôkre has already been described in the literature for years, however, the description of a non-canonically marked subject is a field that proves to be very productive itself and still need further exploration. The thematic of the subject which receives different canonical pattern mark is current and relevant as it brings new information to the morphosyntax language knowledge and contributes to the understanding of phenomena that still needs description. The non-canonical subject study intends to raise the discussion on the Mẽbêngôkre subject realization, although there is still a lot remaining to be done for this hypothesis to be definitively confirmed. In this scenario, the main objective of this thesis is to describe the ways in which the subject is marked in Mẽbêngôkre language, focusing on the main strategies used for canonical and non-canonical subjects marking, especially the dative subject, marked by mã postposition and the locative subject, marked by kãm, jã and bê postpositions. The non-canonical subject pattern in Mẽbêngôkre is treated based on tests regarding the coding and behavioral properties of the subject suggested by Keenan (1976); Sigurðsson (2004); Eythórsson; Barddal (2005); Barddal; Eythórsson (2006 and 2009), among other authors. The analysis shown is based on field research material data, acquired through interview recording with indigenous consultants from Mẽbêngôkre villages, placed in the Gorotire reserve, in São Félix do Xingu municipality, southern of Pará state. The methodology is based on test application about the coding properties such as nominal case marking, the argument indexing in the verb and the constituents order in the sentence, and on behavioral properties such as reflexive control, control and erasure in coordinated and subordinate clauses and reference changes. The data showed that, besides the canonically marked subject, there is another subject who is also formally marked by morphemes that are postposition and the morphosyntactic tests performed showed that those subjects are approved in most of the proposed tests, in the dative subject case and in the locative subject in some cases. An argument that supports the prefixes indexed analysis in postpositions as subject is the fact that these prefixes are doubled by the nominative pronoun, as it occurs with the canonically marked subject.

Atitudes e estigma: investigações sobre o status do alteamento da vogal média posterior tônica na variedade marajoara
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-08-25) FRANCÊS JUNIOR, Celso; AGUILERA, Vanderci de Andrade; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8323910235303866; CRUZ, Regina Célia Fernandes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3307472469778577
The present thesis, entitled: Attitude and Stigma: Investigations of the status of tonic posterior mean increase in the marajoara variety, aimed to: i) examine the role of social variables gender, education and age in the formation of linguistic attitudes towards a variety discredited and suffering prejudice; ii) investigate the cognitive and affective components, within each social variable, as elements that modify attitudes, variations and linguistic changes; and, iii) to study, in parallel, the recurrence of middle back vowels in stressed syllables in the variety of Portuguese spoken in the mesoregion of Marajó, as a variant evaluated below the speaker's level of consciousness. As a complement to the attitude survey, a posterior mid-vowel acoustic study in stressed syllable in the variety of Portuguese spoken in the mesoregion of Marajó was carried out, as a possible heightened variant and evaluation according to linguistic attitudes. For this purpose, the theoretical-ethodological assumptions of Variationist Sociolinguistics (CARDOSO, 2015; LABOV, 2008; AGUILERA, 2008; CALVET, 2002; MORENO FERNÁNDEZ, 1998; LÓPEZ MORALES, 1989) and Social Psychology (BEM, 1973; LAMBERT; LAMBERT, 1972; ROKEACH, 1968; LICKERT, 1932; THURSTONE, 1929). The universe of this research was the Marajó mesoregion, the largest archipelago of river islands in the world, with 16 municipalities legally, of which the cities of Breves, Curralinho and Portel were selected as target locations, as they comprise zones of interdialectal contact. The work methodology included procedures used for the collection, treatment and analysis of acoustic data and linguistic attitude, namely: i) instruments for collecting acoustic data on speech production, based on the interview protocol (Phonetic-Phonological Questionnaire); and, for data collection and linguistic attitude measurement (false pairs technique), from the attitude questionnaire; ii) profile of research participants, who add up to 72 characteristics socially stratified by sex, age group and education level; iii) variables controlled in the acoustic description (segmental, prosodic and social); and variables controlled in the analysis of linguistic attitude (gender, age and education); iv) data processing. In the analysis procedure, the following were performed: i) an acoustic characterization of the target vowel, based on the parameters of F1 and F2; and iii) an analysis of the linguistic evaluations of the eightening of the stressed back mid vowel in the marajoara variety. The acoustic data showed that the absence of heightening in the target variable was categorical, because in the constitution of an acoustic space that could show the effective behavior of what was thought to be a high posterior vowel, the occurrences of the segment [u] presented its distribution in the same region of the posterior mean [o], with mean value of F1 at 471 Hz and of F2, 956 Hz. This leads us to state that it is the same vocalic segment, based on the acoustic data. The result of the subjective evaluations revealed that native speakers of the marajoara municipalities, target of the research, manifested positive attitudes when they were placed in the position of judges to judge possible recurrent varieties in the marajoara region. This positive valuation reveals that, although the participants did not perform the heightening of the back vowel in the tonic, they rated it as a prestige variant. The acceptance and prestige given to the variant, a product of a positive attitude, are added to the feeling of solidarity, motivated by emotions, knowledge and positive reactions acquired in the use of its variety or in that of other subjects.

Caracterização acústica das vogais médias pretônicas /e/ e /o/ do português falado na Cidade de Cametá/PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-02-19) SOUSA, Josivane do Carmo Campos; CRUZ, Regina Célia Fernandes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3307472469778577
The present Doctoral Thesis in Linguistics aims to provide an acoustic description of the middle pretonic vowels / e / and / o / in Portuguese spoken in the urban area of the City of Cametá/PA. As specific objectives, we sought to: a) verify the possible influences of social factors such as gender, age group and education on the variation of the pretonic mean vowels; b) to verify if the phenomenon of vowel harmony favors the process of variation of the target vowels in the variety of Cametá/PA; c) provide the acoustic space of the target vowels under analysis, according to the parameters of F1 (tongue height), F2 (anteriority/posteriority); d) to investigate the role of F0 (fundamental frequency), F3 (roundness of the lips) and Duration in the acoustic characterization of the pretonic middle vowels in the studied variety. For that, the methodological procedures adopted were those established by Cruz (2011) in the acoustic characterization of the pretonic vowel system of Portuguese spoken in the Paraense Amazon: a) standardized corpus - with 45 words selected based on the context of high variability in previous sociolinguistic studies; b) sample stratified socially in sex, age group and education; c) data collection using the text reading protocol aloud (Y); d) segmentation of data in Praat; e) application of the Praat Analyzer Tier script to obtain the acoustic measurements taken from the central part of the target vowels; f) organization of the values of the physical parameters in Excel; g) statistical treatment by means of the R program. The results presented are the treatment of the 789 data from the data collection protocol through the reading of text (Y), contemplating the 18 (eighteen) sound signals referring to the sample. The sociolinguistic analysis showed the predominance of the medium variants, both of the anterior (75%) and the posterior (60%). Then, the low variants: 15% for the former, and 27% for the latter; and finally, the high variants: 10% of the former, and 13% of the latter. As for the social factors analyzed, schooling proved to be the most interfering factor in the variation of the vowels under study, as it was found that the higher the level of education, the greater the likelihood of performing the medium variants, and the lower the probability of high variants, confirming, therefore, that the schooling process in the municipality of Cametá tends to erase dialect marks. The acoustic analysis, in turn, from the joint analysis of F1 and F2, confirms that it is the most compact pretense vocalic system in Cametá and with a greater tendency towards centralization, as attested by Lages (2017) and Verçosa (2018). Vowel harmony was confirmed by tests of significance as a phonological process favoring vowel variation. With regard to F0 and F3, these are confirmed as parameters of identity between the variants, precisely because they present very close frequencies, thus allowing the realization of the same phoneme at the underlying level to be considered. The duration, in turn, was considered more than a distinctive parameter of vowels, since it can also be taken as an identity parameter between the variants of the vowels in a pretonic context.

Crenças e atitudes linguísticas de paraenses e cearenses na Região Nordeste do Pará: um estudo sobre o abaixamento das vogais médias pretônicas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-02-21) FERREIRA, Jany Éric Queirós; FERREIRA, Jany Éric Queirós; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3307472469778577; AGUILERA, Vanderci; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8323910235303866
The present Thesis aimed to investigate the linguistic beliefs and attitudes of speakers living in the Northeast of Pará State (Santa Maria do Pará, São Miguel do Guamá, Aurora do Pará, Mãe do Rio, Ipixuna do Pará localities) towards the variation of pretonic, in the light of the theoretical-methodological principles of Multidimensional Dialectology, Sociolinguistics and the Study of Linguistic Beliefs (LAMBERT and LAMBERT, 1972; RADTKE and THUN, 1996; LABOV, 2008; BOTASSINI, 2013; FREITAG and SANTOS, 2016 ). This research is justified by the contribution it will bring to linguistic studies in the Northern Region, where there is a shortage of research of this nature. It is expected to contribute to the understanding of linguistic variation and change and, consequently, help in the fight against linguistic prejudice (SILVA and AGUILERA, 2014). For its execution, the pretonic average vowels were analyzed from the speech of Ceará migrants and Pará natives in five survey points, based on the sample the diatopic dimension (eight informants from each locality), subdivided into topostatic (six natives from each locality) and topodynamics (two Ceará migrants in each locality). The sample was stratified according to the diasexual (4 female and 4 male) and diagenerational (18 to 25 years and 50 to 65 years) dimensions. Data was collected by interviews: the occurrences of the object vowels were collected through reading, questionnaire response and narratives; Belief and attitude data were collected through the quantitative questionnaire, using the matched guise test technique, and a qualitative questionnaire, as well as the self-assessment test. All material collected was organized for transcription in Praat. Three corpora were constituted: one of mean occurrences, with control of lowering and not lowering; another one from the answers of the quantitative attitude questionnaire and another one for the qualitative analysis. The quantitative data corpus was coded in Excel for statistical treatment in Goldvarb X. The qualitative data corpus was categorized for further analysis. The results showed that the realization of [e] and [o] predominates in the speech of natives and migrants of the localities, following the tendency of other regions of Pará (RAZKY, LIMA and OLIVEIRA, 2012; CRUZ, 2012). For the lowering of / e / and / o /, the open vowels, in both tonic and contiguous position, and the degree of nasality of the vowel of the stressed syllable favored the phenomenon, evidencing the vowel harmony as a major driver of this phenomenon. The degree of formality was not significant to the application of lowering. Of the social factors, the origin of the informant, a single group considered significant, favored the phenomenon in the speech of migrants. Gender and age group were not probalistically significant, but in percentage terms, there was a higher occurrence of lower speech in women and young people. The subjective attitudes revealed that the people from Ceara,Belem and local dialects enjoy a certain prestige, because they were evaluated positively, with percentages above 70%. Diatopically, the results differ presenting positive evaluations sometimes to the local dialect, sometimes to Belém or to Ceará inhabitants. Migrants attributed more positive ratings to the dialects than the native ones. From the diassexual point of view, men preferred the local and Ceará dialects, and women, the local and Belem’s dialects. In relation to the diagenerational, young people preferred the Belem’s and local dialects, while adults preferred the local and Cearense dialects. Most informants did not notice the difference between open and closed vowels in two word sequences, however, preferred and claimed to speak the word sequences with closed vowels. The local and Belem inhabitants dialects have higher social status. The natives were more loyal to their dialect than the migrants.

Dos campos do Marajó aos campos do discurso: sentidos sobre o trabalho do vaqueiro na tradição e na contemporaneidade
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-02-21) POMBO, Délcia Pereira; PESSOA, Fátima Cristina da Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4011084861970140
This thesis triggers the reins of a study course designed to investigate the discourses about the work of the Marajoara cowherd in the tension between traditional and contemporary meanings about the profession. To apprehend the senses effects of the discursive experiences in the work context, there is the guiding question: How to understand the tension inherent to the discourses that imply the figure of the cowherd, still rooted to the traditions, and the contemporary, more distanced from them? For this purpose, the theoretical and analytical path is intertwined with the theoretical and methodological framework of Discourse Analysis (DA), based on the postulates of Dominique Maingueneau, focusing on the concepts of de deixis, discursive practice, enunciation scenes, simulacrum, and polemic, to think about productive activities in the labor universe, in a construction that is mediated discursively. Added to these contributions are the principles of Ergology, based on the postulates of Yves Schwartz, to think about the relationship between language and work, in the reference made to the prescriptions of work and the performance of the cowherd in the daily toil. The narratives of life, based on the postulates of Daniel Bertaux, are used to think about the access to the discourses about the work of the cowherd, in the telling of the experiences of the work in a space in which the enunciation acquires meaning. The investigation was carried out through narrative interviews, with subsequent transcription, which constituted a point of articulation between the phenomena of language and the work of the cowherd and how professional identity is constructed in a discursive practice. The choice of the theme is justified by the relevance of the studies on Marajoara cowherding, and to contribute to the discussion around a discursive subject thought from a place. In this direction, the locus of the investigation concentrates on ten farms located in the fields in Marajó, municipality of Soure. The focus is on the articulation of two analytical corpora: the life narratives of sixteen Marajoara cowherds, distributed in four categories of professionals, whether they are day laborers, effective, foremen, and retired; and Law 12870/2013, which regulates the profession of the cowherd. This deepens the recognition of an interdiscursive operation between the meanings produced in the legal field and the meanings produced in the labor field. In the foundations on which the analyses are built, the voices that narrate weave a network of discursive relations implied in the saying of oneself and of work with a register of significant marks in the production of meanings in the historically marked activity of cowherding in this region of the fields of Marajó.

Estudo de fraseologia do futebol brasileiro das séries B, C e D em jornais digitais populares: construção de um dicionário eletrônico

One of the knowing the social thought history through centuries is present in a vast number of expressions that can convey the way one or more generations live and can work as conduct instruments able to be aplied in daily life. The factors that allow its union under the hypernymy phraseology are essentially semantic, that is, its signification is established from a set of elements that constitute them and its high level of lexicalization. What characterizes the permanent expression is the conventionality of the group and its memorization as a cohesion block, its sequence is recovered from the memory as a whole and recognized as an informational unity. The studies of the phraseological units of the common language have long been carried out through the organization of repeated expressions, orally or in writing, in important works of literature from different eras. In turn, common language phraseology encompasses the study of quite different units: proverbs, dictations, idioms, phrases, and utterances. However, the study of these units in specialty languages has only recently begun to gain ground due to the advancement of the sciences and the need to understand the languages of the specific areas that are developed, in view of the new technologies and linguistic mobility to which the Man is exposed. In this sense, the present PhD work aims to identify, describe and analyze in written texts from the Sport Notebook section of five Brazilian capital newspapers: Amazônia Jornal / Belém, Daqui / Goiânia, Diário Gaúcho / Porto Alegre, Massa / Salvador e Meia Hora de Notícias / Rio de Janeiro the phraseology related to the universe of football series B, C and D of the Brazilian championship. The data were collected in the time-cut from 2008 to 2015, which includes a post and a FIFA World Cup pre-match, which leads us to believe that there is a natural propensity to produce these structures, as well as verify the degree of crystallization Of these phraseological units. Corpus linguistics is part of the methodological procedures and the empirical approach used to compile and extract data according to Berber Sardinha (2004) and Tagnin (2005). The theoretical basis adopted is limited to the taxonomy proposed by Gross (1982), Gross (1996) and Mejri (1997, 1998, 2002, 2012), Xatara (1994, 1998); Ortiz-Alvarez (2000 ; 2012) and Oto-Vale (2002) for the identification of the criteria and the analysis of the phraseological units. For a specific approach to phraseology, we rely on the precepts developed by Mejri (1997; 2012), in which the author explicitly states that underlying syntactic behaviors of fixed sequences are deep semantic mechanisms. Considered under this bias, the studies in the area of phraseology not only allow to reflect on questions in the field of language, but also contribute to understand a particular community by recording and analyzing the expressions that make up its linguistic heritage. 1318 phraseological units were found and the data obtained reveal a considerable presence of phraseologies in the texts investigated. Some very emblematic examples: pisar na bola, gol de bicicleta and lá onde a coruja dorme. The corpus evidences, therefore, uncontested marks of these phraseologies in the lexicon, reason for which it is necessary to investigate these marks.

Estudo do léxico da língua Apurinã uma proposta de macro e microestrura para o dicionário Apurinã
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-02-28) PADOVANI, Bruna Fernanda Soares de Lima; FACUNDES, Sidney da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9502308340482231; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7460-8620
This thesis aims to describe and analyze the lexicon of the Apurinã language (Aruák) with the purpose of elaborating a bilingual bi-directional general Apurinã-Portuguese/Portuguese- Apurinã dictionary. Apurinã is an indigenous ethnicity and a minority language spoken mainly in communities scattered along the banks of several tributaries of the Purus River in the south part of the state of Amazonas. This work sought to articulate academic and social objectives in which, on one hand, we have the description and analysis of the lexical system of the Apurinã language and, on the other, a comprehensive documentation of this language in order to ensure written registration of it, helping the Apurinã people in their native language teaching-learning and literacy initiatives. It is noteworthy that, in the case of Apurinã and other Brazilian indigenous languages, the importance of the latter aspect is increasing, since indigenous languages are in danger of extinction. To this end, this thesis was organized in two volumes. The first volume consists in four parts, which in turn consist of seven chapters. The second volume presents the Apurinã dictionary, product of this thesis. In the first part of the first volume entitled, Initial Considerations, we have in the first chapter an introduction to some general characteristics of the language, culture, and territory of the Apurinã people, as well as the context of the research; in the second chapter we present the theoretical contributions necessary for its construction; in the third chapter we discuss about the construction and organization of the corpus used in this research. In the second part, Apurinã Lexicon Structure, we present in the fourth chapter an overview of the phonetic-phonological aspects of Apurinã, where we show the inventory of vowels and consonants, pointing out the variations that occur involving some segments, and the different language spelling proposals; in the fifth chapter we focus on the open lexical categories of the language, beginning with the description of nouns, their subcategories, discuss the processes of lexical innovation, linguistic variation and the phenomenon of double vocabulary, then deal with verbs and their subcategories. In the sixth chapter, we deal with the closed lexical categories (pronouns, demonstratives, interrogative words, floating particles and morphemes), pointing out their main characteristics and functions. In the third part, Apurinã Dictionary, which is made up of the seventh chapter, we discuss how the dictionary was organized and the decisions made regarding the proposed macro and microstructure. The fourth part of this thesis, Final Considerations, is composed by the conclusions, where we make an overview of the work and the possible developments that can be explored from the dictionary, for example, an electronic version of the dictionary, pedagogical dictionaries, glossaries of specific fields of the Apurinã culture and thematic booklets; the appendixes are formed by small texts collected exclusively for this research; and by the questionnaires. Finally, the seconde volume is presented, which consists the proposal of the dictionary for the Apurinã language.

Estudo geossociolinguístico do léxico do Portuguê falado em áreas indígenas de língua Tupi-guarani nos estados do Pará e do Maranhão Tomo I
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-08-27) COSTA, Eliane Oliveira da; MEJRI, Salah; RAZKY, Abdelhak; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8153913927369006
For a long time, Dialectology was characterized by exclusively sustaining concern with the diatopic perspective of linguistic variation. However, the current configuration of modern societies has led the area to accept the importance of sociolinguistic factors and linguistic contacts in understanding linguistic phenomena, and, from that moment on, to consider other dimensions in which a natural language can vary. The current thesis was carried out within the geosociolinguistic and/or multi-dimensional perspective. It sought to investigate the lexical variation of Portuguese spoken in Tupí-Guaraní indigenous areas in the states of Pará and Maranhão in the light of the Pluridimensional and Relational Dialectology proposed by Radtke and Thun (1999), Thun (1998, 2000, 2010, 2017), which combines the horizontal (diatopic) dimension with the vertical (diastratic) dimension and the studies by Cardoso (2010), Cardoso and Mota (2016) Razky (1998, 2010), Elizaincín (2010), Calvet (2002), Romaine (1996), Chambers and Trudgill (1998), Trudgill (1999) and Berruto (2010). Four indigenous lands were studied: Trocará (Asuriní do Tocantins/PA), Nova Jacundá (Guaraní Mbyá/PA), Sororó (Suruí Aikewára/PA) and Cana Brava (Guajajára/MA), which are the diatopic dimension of this study. In each community, we sought to interview ten participants. The dimensions considered were the diagenerational (5 to 10 years – Age group C, 18 to 37 years – Age group A, 47 to 75 years – Age group B); the diageneric (male and female), and the diastratic (not educated or educated until the 8th grade (9th grade) and educated from the 1st grade of high school). In addition to the previously mentioned dimensions, the dialingual one (referring to the contact between two or more languages in a language community) was also considered in the research. The dialingual dimension was broadly contemplated by the following linguistic contact relationships: Portuguese/Asuriní from Tocantins; Portuguese/Guaraní Mbyá, Portuguese/Suruí Aikewára and Portuguese/Guajajára. Data collection was carried out on-site and employed the Semantic-Lexical Questionnaire (QSL) of the Brazilian Linguistic Atlas (ALiB) Project. In addition, the situation of bilingualism in the studied communities was observed through the Sociolinguistic Questionnaire (QS). In general, the results show that the lexicon of Portuguese spoken in the studied indigenous lands reflect a continuum, both in the indigenous area considered in data collection and in non-indigenous areas where the ethnic communities are located. Concerning bilingualism, the diagenerational dimension (age group B) is decisive for the maintenance of indigenous languages in the language communities herein studied.

Estudo geossociolinguístico do léxico do Português falado pelos Baré, Tukano e Baniwa em São Gabriel da Cachoeira(AM): Tomo I
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-08-16) FELIX, Maria Ivanete de Santana; SOLANO, Eliete de Jesus Bararuá; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0729560354405732; RAZKY, Abdelhak; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8153913927369006; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9250-8917
The awareness of the differences or similarities existing in a community’s language is a response to the extralinguistic factors inherent to the speakers. Searching beyond the geographical aspect, we attest this assertion corresponds to a current conception within the scope of Pluridimensional and Relational Dialectology. This doctoral thesis, in line with this perspective, has as its general objective, to investigate the lexical variation of the Portuguese language spoken by the Baré, Tukano and Baniwa indigenous groups, in São Gabriel da Cachoeira (SGC) municipality, located in the state of Amazonas (AM), registering its features by means of linguistic maps with emphasis upon the diatopic, diagerational, diasexual and diastratic dimensions. The main theoretical and methodological contributions to this investigation rely on the studies of Thun (1998, 2000); Razky (1996, 2013) and Cardoso (1999), concerning the fields of dialectology and geosociolinguistics; Rodrigues (1963, 1985, 1986); Rodrigues and Cabral (2002); and Felix (2002), in respect of indigenous languages. The geolinguistic method accounts for the definition of the research locus and for the data collection procedures, mainly through questionnaires. The first one was the Sociolinguistic Questionnaire (SQ) from the project Atlas Sonoro das Línguas Indígenas do Brasil (ASLIB); the second, was the Metalinguistic/Epilinguistic Questionnaire; and the third one was the Lexical-Semantic Questionnaire from the project Atlas Linguístico do Brasil (QSL-ALiB-2001). Three enquiry points have been set, and eight speakers from each language, either sex, distinct educational levels and two different age ranges were interviewed, totaling 24 consultants. Forty lexical items referring to thirteen semantic fields were picked out of the collected and treated data. Results stemming from the analysis of the four dimensions, demonstrated that in this geographical area there is a significant lexical plurality to designate one same lexical item; however, there is no geographical delimitation restricted to the realization of the lexical variants found among the enquiry points. Considering the data from the Linguistic Atlas of Amazon (ALAM), Linguistic Atlas of Southern Amazon State (ALSAM) and Linguistic Atlas of Brazil (ALiB), the majority of the compared data provide evidences that there is more accentuated proximity of the variants registered in the ALSAM atlas. The Portuguese currently spoken in SGC, despite the socio historical factors, does not point to specific lexical items of a micro area, and presents slight distinction from the Portuguese spoken in other areas of the Amazon region and from the standard Portuguese language. This research will provide contributions to the fields of Geosociolinguistics and Pluridimensional Dialectology, having Razky and Thun as lead researchers respectively, as well as to the studies developed in the state of Amazon and to the ASLIB and GeoLinTerm projects to which this investigation is linked.

A formação para o trabalho docente na fronteira entre a academia, a mídia e o mercado

Investigating discursive constitution of teaching professional's work within specialized magazines in which ones the teacher figures as its target audience constitutes the principal aim of this researching work, starting from the hypothesis that such publications propose themselves to be instancies to formation for this professional. In this perspective, interdisciplinary discussions were necessary to comprehend how the discourses about the work of teachers as well about their formation contribute to constitution and legitimation of images of the teaching professionals and their profession. To accomplish this research, some concepts from different areas of knowledge were discussed. They formed the basis to development of this research: centrally, the concept of discursive practice, based on theoretical postulates of Foucault (1987) and Maingueneau (1997, 2008a), and the concept of work, based on the studies by Certeau (1982, 1998) guided the research. In order to undertake the study, the discourses that circulate in specialized magazines served to compose the corpus of the research because they showed their relevance to discuss the constitution of teaching, since these publications have a legitimate space in media and in market, which demonstrates its social insertion and legitimation as a consumer product for teachers. Inside the scope of the research, it is understandable that specialized magazines are media (MAINGUENEAU, 2013) by which sense effects are mobilized and (re) produced. The genres chosen for the analysis work were editorials, magazine covers and articles signed by teachers or interviews with teachers, to comprehend the relationships that are established so that the frontier discursive practice is put in functionment. To enrich the discussions, the notions of enunciation scene (MAINGUENEAU, 2005) and discursive deixis (MAINGUENEAU, 1997) were discussed into analysis chapter. The analysis of the discursive practice mobilized in the magazines allows us to understand how such publications lay in functionment discourses from a hybrid frontier, in which discourses from academia, the media and the market converge. Therefore, these magazines are considered to operate a discursive practice that mobilizes subjects and identities, while the legitimation of the places of those who writes in the media scene, if they are journalists, editors, teachers, so on is realized by the effects of sense that the texts conveyed produce. The discussions enable us to comprehend how the discourses about the teacher's work and his formation appear within these specialized publications and (re) produce images which ones form professionals and truths about the profession.

O governo da língua na cabanagem: (des)encontros coloniais na Amazônia
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-05-12) LAVAREDA, Welton Diego Carmim; NEVES, Ivânia dos Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2648132192179863
The research that resulted in the current doctoral thesis analyzes in general, how the different governmentality strategies defined by the colonial device, during the period of Cabanagem, favored the establishment of a European linguistic heritage in the Amazon, inserted in a series of conflicts, predominantly, linguistic. Taking as a starting point the archivist series cataloged in the Public Archives of Pará, in the Public Archives of the Municipalities of Cametá-PA and Vigia de Nazaré-PA, in the Foreing Office (London) and in the publication “Political Riots or history of the main events politicians in the Province of Pará from 1821 to 1835 ”(1970), this research proposes, in a specific way, to map the historical movements and the linguistic practices experienced at the time of the colonization (which served as base for the analyzes). Also in a specific way, we seek to identify which discursive tensions were legitimized, by the colonial device, for the maintenance of a government of the language that favored the European linguistic management in the Cabana Province (1835-1840). The theoretical and methodological framework were built under the basis of interdisciplinary dialogues that could refer to historical experience, adopting as main analytical basis the archeogenealogical perspective of Michel Foucault's discursive studies (1964; 2009; 2008, 2010a; 2010b; 2010c; 2011; 2016a; 2016b ). In order to understand the process of lusitanization and the historical emergencies of linguistic policies related to the Colonial Period, we turn to Rosa Virgínia Mattos e Silva (2004), Cristine Severo (2013; 2014; 2016) & Sinfree Makoni (2015) and Bessa Freire (2011). When we mobilizing the dimension of linguistic necropolitics and the concept of language in recent modernity, we follow the studies and conceptual operationalization that has been developed by GEDAI-CNPq (LAVAREDA & NEVES, 2018; 2019; 2020; OLIVEIRA, 2018; NEVES- CORRÊA, 2018; LISBÔA, 2019). By using as a reference the definition of coloniality of power guided by decolonial studies, driven by Aníbal Quijano (1999; 2005), and adopting the constitution of the language through the bias of modernity and coloniality as mutually constitutive projects (MIGNOLO, 2020; MARTÍN-BARBERO, 2009 ; 2014; WALSH, 2019), we moved the discussions about the colonial device proposed by Ivânia Neves (2009; 2015; 2020), in order to think about the technologies of power that are still active in the production processes of the subjectivities of Amazonian societies and of the discourses that circulate over them. The research on the cabano movement observed by Magda Ricci (2001; 2016), the studies on Afro-Brazilian populations in the social struggles and ethnic composition of Pará and on the Cabanagem, carried out by Vicente Salles (1992; 2005; 2015), also compose the global theoretical architecture of the proposed debates. Finally, it is ratified that the “invention” of a Portuguese-speaking government in the Cabano scenario intensified the transposition of varied discursive genres to the conditions of emergence of colonized peoples in the Brazilian Amazon and, in the same direction, potentiated the emergence of metacategories that were taken as discourses of truth until the history of the present.

A heterogeneidade linguístico-cultural em turmas de português língua estrangeira: o impacto na produção escrita
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-08-28) SALES, Hellen Margareth Pompeu de; CUNHA, José Carlos Chaves da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3117544056791050
In this study, we discussed and analyzed written texts of students from different countries, participants of ―Programa de Estudante Convênio Graduação‖ (PEC G), of the Portuguese for Foreigners course, at Federal University of Pará (UFPA), who submitted to ―Certificado de Proficiência em Língua Portuguesa para Estrangeiros‖ (Celpe Bras), in the years of 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. The objective is to investigate the impact of the linguistic cultural heterogeneity of the student and the class in the teaching learning of the Written Production (PE) in Foreign Language Portuguese (PLE). It is, especially, an research action supported by the language biography procedure. Our theoretical base is based on studies on Plurilingualism, Pluriculturalism and Interculturalism (ABDALLAH PRETCEILLE, 2003/2010; BLANCHET, 1998/2014; CONSELHO DA EUROPA, 2001/2010; COSTE, 2001; 2010...), Competences (CONSELHO DA EUROPA, 2001/2010; HYMES, 1984...), and others, associated with the Interactionism Sociodiscursive ISD (BRONCKART, 2003/2017; DOLZ, 2004/ 2016; SCHNEUWLY, 2004/2014; BULEA, 2010/2012...). In order to constitute our data we developed Written Production workshops (directed to the target public) that gave us several texts written by the learners. They are texts that we call "real" (account of experience / linguistic biography, sketches / drafts) or of "simulated" (tasks of written production of diverse textual genres). All this material allowed us not only to identify the influence of languages cultures in the texts written in Portuguese by the learners, but also to verify attitudes, behaviors ... that sometimes helped, or sometimes they made it difficult to the process of Production written in Portuguese. The analysis of our data: 1) indicates that several texts written by the learner present "deviations" that studies, only, on textuality, do not explain satisfactorily, since they are related to the history of learning, with the attitude that the student assumed to learn portuguese etc. These are phenomenas that are often not perceived by the teacher (nor by the student) in the classroom, but which impact the teaching learning process; 2) confirms the need to deepen the study of the impact of the linguistic / cultural heterogeneity of the students, and of the group coming from their educational cultures, their learning paths of language cultures ... to understand better their written production difficulties in PLE and, thus, be able to optimize the teaching learning process.

Investigando desvozeamento vocálico no português brasileiro (PB) : análise acústica e perceptual das vogais altas pretônicas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-06-26) FAGUNDES, Giselda da Rocha; MEIRELES, Alexsandro Rodrigues; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9913871449747690; CRUZ, Regina Célia Fernandes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3307472469778577
According to Gordon (1998), devoicing occurs in practically all the languages of the world he studied, including Brazilian Portuguese, being the high vowels more susceptible to the occurrence of the phenomenon that Gordon also associates with the deaf surrounding environment and atonicity. According to Meneses (2012, 2016), devoicing is related to the reduction in the magnitude of the vowel gesture, caused by the short articulation time, allowing the consonant gestures to overlap with the vowel gestures. Therefore, this PhD thesis investigates the phenomenon of the devoicing of the pretonic high vowels in Brazilian Portuguese (BP), both acoustically and perceptually, through the application of Gestural Phonology theory, taking into account the phonetic contexts that most favor this phenomenon. For acoustic analysis a total of 1,440 vehicle phrases were collected. For perception, 8,208 data were collected regarding identification and gradation, which, among other conclusions, converge with the results of Meneses (2012, 2016) and Hasegawa (1999), that is, that the devoiced vowels occur without prejudice to the perception of these vowels, which, like the devoicing, varies from individual to individual; and Gordon (1998), because the articulatory and aerodynamic factors that induce devoicing conflict with the perceptive factors, which advocate against devoicing, since, perceptually, there is no clear distinction between voiced and voiceless vowel, but a gradient between the extremes.

Língua como linha de força do dispositivo colonial: os gavião entre a aldeia e a universidade
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-05-09) LISBÔA, Flávia Marinho; NEVES, Ivânia dos Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2648132192179863
This PhD final thesis proposes a reflection on the role of language in the sociodiscursive practices of the university, as an institution for the materialization of the hegemonic norms of the colonial device, for the stay of indigenous Gavião students of the Parkatejê, Akrãtikatejê and Kyikatjê groups at the Federal University of the South and Southeast of Pará (Unifesspa). A theoretical-methodological tool was developed from the Postcolonial Studies (especially Walter Mignolo, Aníbal Quijano, Catherine Walsh and Àngel Rama) and Michel Foucault's analysis of the archegenealogical discourse, fundamentally in the notion of "device", also with the Neves (2009, 2015) reading about the Foucauldian device, which resulted in the proposal of "colonial device". The four lines (Visibility, Enunciation, Subjectivity and Force) drawn by Deleuze (2006) for the Foucault device is another structural influence in the thesis, from which two were taken (Subjectivity and Force) to present the oscillations of behavior of the colonial device in the university throughout history and from the entrance of indigenous people due to affirmative actions in the last ten years. Within these lines, it was observed that the hegemonic profile of the university is tensioned with the indigenous presence and the language presents itself as the line of force, sewing the discursive practices that guarantee the norms of the colonial device in that context.

Livro didático e práticas em sala de aula para alfabetização em Parkatêjê
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-08-17) QUARESMA, Francinete de Jesus Pantoja; FERREIRA, Marília de Nazaré de Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4291543797221091; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9995-1938
The indigenous peoples of Brazil are heavily threatened with extinction. Consequently, their language and cultures are also in danger of disappearing. Throughout more than 500 years of contact, provoked by the arrival of the Portuguese, the number of indigenous peoples and languages have reduced (SEKI, 2000). Contact with non-indigenous cultures has led these communities either to a process of extinction or monolingualism in Portuguese. Thus, safeguarding measures are urgently required for the preservation of indigenous peoples and the revitalization of their languages. In the current scenario, indigenous school education, involving the formal and systematized teaching of the traditional languages of these communities, has been understood by the natives themselves as a strategy for the preservation and invigoration of these languages. But for the schooling process to fulfill such purpose, methodologies for teaching and learning indigenous languages and textbooks used in the classroom must be consistent with the reality and specificities of the people they are intended to. Based on this assumption, this study aimed to contribute to the formal teaching-learning process of the Parkatêjê, a language of the Timbira Dialectal Complex, spoken by the Parkatêjê Indigenous Community, located in southeastern Pará. In the current context, as a result of the intense contact with the surrounding society, Parkatêjê has become the inherited language of the indigenous children's generation, who are monolingual in Portuguese, but with great potential for language learning and capable of reversing the situation of linguistic obsolescence. In this sense, this research carried out within the Parkatêjê community was motivated by the need for investment in studies that favor the strengthening of endangered languages. Through this study, we sought to investigate a theoretical-methodological contribution which has proves efficient for teaching-learning of the Parkatêjê language at a literacy level that subsidizes the production of indigenous textbooks, classroom practices and school curriculum. The theoretical-methodological hybridism based on the concepts of Textual Genres, the Communicative Approach and the Psychogenesis of Written Language was appointed as an alternative to support school activities that promote, concurrently, the development of oral and written skills in children enrolled in the 1st/9 year of the Escola Indígena Estadual de Educação Infantil, Fundamental e Médio Pẽptykre Parkatêjê. Consistent with the particularity of the action research, the results of this investigation culminated in a proposal for a curricular reference matrix for the teaching of the Parkatêjê Language at the literacy level to Parkatêjê children; a proposal for the conception of an indigenous textbook for teaching this language at the local level, with activities developed in didactic sequences aimed at the 1st of the three school years / grades that comprise the Ciclo de Alfabetização [Literacy Cycle]; and a proposal for an indigenous textbook for reading the illustrated Parkatêjê alphabet. A bibliographic, documental and field nature research was developed. The study has also employed techniques consistent with the qualitative approach and applied data collection based on the theoretical assumptions of Applied Linguistics, Descriptive Linguistics and Education.

Microatlas linguístico (Português-Kheuól) da área indígena dos Karipuna do Amapá
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-02-19) SANCHES, Romário Duarte; THUN, Harald; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1908310939458842; RAZKY, Abdelhak; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8153913927369006; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9250-8917
The main objective of this work is the elaboration of a linguistic microatlas (portuguesekheuól) of the indigenous area belonging to the Karipuna of Amapá, as a way to present the configuration of the lexical variation in border area and in traditional communities bilingual. As a review of the literature, socio-historical and cultural questions about the Karipuna ethnic group of Amapá and the postulates of the areas of Linguistic Contact and Dialectology are discussed. The research adopted as the main theoretical and methodological presupposition the Pluridimensional and Contatual Dialectology (ALTENHOFEN; THUN, 2016), hereinafter ―Contatual Dialectology‖. As study object is the variety of portuguese spoken in Oiapoque (AP) and kheuól, a variety of french base spoken by the natives Karipuna of Amapá. The dimensions controlled in this study are: diatopic, diassexual, diagenerational and dialingual. For each one, were delimited parameters that aided in the variational description and in the elaboration of linguistic maps that compose the microatlas. In this way, 36 informants from the following Karipuna ethnic groups, equivalent to the linguistic points, were interviewed: 01 - Manga, 02 - Santa Isabel, 03 - Espírito Santo, 04 - Açaizal, 05 - Curipi, 06 - Kariá, 07 - Ahumã, 08 - Ariramba and 10 - Kunanã. The localities are dispersed in three Indigenous areas: Uaçá, Galibi and Juminã. The highest concentration of the Karipuna is in the Uaçá Indigenous area. To obtain the results, a priori, analyzes were made on the social and sociolinguistic profile of the Karipuna, and then the analysis of the lexical maps made for the second volume of this work. The maps show the configuration of the lexical variation of portuguese and kheuól, contact varieties, where it is possible to note the interinfluence of both varieties, especially the overlapping of local Portuguese lexical variants under the kheuól lexicon. The results confirm the thesis that there is a strong presence of Portuguese spoken in Amapá, having it as the dominant variety in indigenous societies in the Oiapoque region especially in areas that correspond to the group of Karipuna do Amapá.

Movimento Xingu vivo para sempre: da fundação à consolidação do discurso de recusa radical ao complexo hidrelétrico de Belo Monte
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-03-27) GALVÃO, Alessandro Nobre; PESSOA, Fátima Cristina da Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4011084861970140
This work examines the socio-historical conjuncture that led to the emergence and consolidation of a new discourse in the order of discourses on the management of natural resources in the Brazilian Amazon - the discourse of radical refusal to the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Complex (CHBM). This situation dates to a conflict started in the late 1970s when the Brazilian government proposes an inventory of the Xingu basin to assess its hydroelectric potential, reaching the 2000s with changes in the country's economic policy based on the strengthening of the neoliberal model and the opening of the Brazilian government to private companies for the exploitation of natural resources. We identified the birth of the resistance of indigenous groups with emphasis on the Kayapó people, later strengthened with the alliance sealed between this and other segments impacted by the Belo Monte project, on the occasion of the Xingu Vivo para Sempre Encounter held in 2008. We analyze, therefore, the historical facts that culminated in the emergence and circulation of this discourse, as well as its ideological foundation, the possible transformations it suffered over time and the discursive processes that derive from it. We made a descriptive dive in the indigenous social formation, seeking to compare it to the capitalist social formation, which allowed us to envisage, based on the Peucheutian studies, that the resistance we investigate is born in a non-place under the aegis of other rituals of interpellation, introducing itself within the practices and possible rituals in the capitalist social formation. Our analytical course showed us that discourse of radical rejection to the CHBM undergoes transformations from the advent of that imaginary alliance that, from a discursive point of view, sealed an alliance not between empirical subjects, but between different positions of subject and allowed the invasion of other knowledge into the FD that determines this discourse. The discursive corpus of this research is constituted by discursive materialities of differentiated semiotic nature and we adopt as a procedure of construction of this corpus the notion of cut proposed by Orlandi (1984), as well as the discursive sequence proposed by Courtine (2014) and the procedures of the analysis followed the triangular approach proposed by Lagazzi (2005).

Movimentos oculares e prosódia de leitura oral: análise dos marcadores prosódicos gráficos na leitura de alunos do 5 º ano do Ensino Fundamental
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-02-25) VANSILER, Nair Daiane de Souza Sauaia; KLEIN, Angela Inês; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8845056127169633; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6230-7938; CRUZ, Regina Célia Fernandes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3307472469778577
The present Doctoral Thesis investigates the processing of Prosodic Graphic Markers - MPGs (PACHECO, 2003) in read-aloud. It aims to examine the processing of oral reading in Brazilian Portuguese (BP) taking into account the MPGs: Comma (VG), Period (PT) and Colon (DP) according to the BP intonational system defined by Cagliari (1981), which presents tonal patterns delimited by a Tonal Group (GT) consisting of a Salient Tonic Syllable (TT), Tonic Component (CT) and Pretonic Component (CPT). The methodology used combines acoustic and cognitive analysis. For the acoustic analysis, we recorded the oral production during reading of 58 5th grade students from the municipal school in Ponta Grossa (PR), all with ages between 9 and 12 years old, classified around the Reading Fluency variable, with a total of 29 students in the Fluent Group (FL) and 32 in the Low Fluency Group (FP). In all, 928 data were analyzed (58 students x 16 target sentences). Variables were controlled for taking the measures of intonational contours: Intensity (in dB) and Fundamental Frequency (f0) (in Hz) of CPT and CT, Duration (in ms) of TT and Pause (in ms). For the cognitive analysis, we employed the Eye Tracker Technique to take measurements of the eye movements of the 58 participants. The eye variables controlled were: Total Reading Time (TTL), Number of Fixations (NF), Number of Saccades (NS), and Mean Fixation Time (MTF). For the relationship between ocular and acoustic data, we applied tests combining the statistical variables and the stimuli: Test 1 (the number of fixations and duration of the internal pause), Test 2 (the number of revisits and duration of the internal pause), Test 3 (the number of fixations and duration of the final pause), and Test 4 (the number of revisits and duration of the final pause). The data was composed of three stimuli, corresponding to the reading of three different types of texts: Text 1, complex with the markers DP (2 target sentences), VG (3 target sentences) and PT (3 target sentences), Text 2, simple with the markers VG (3 target sentences) and PT (1 target sentence) and Text 3, simple without punctuation, containing 4 target sentences: i) 3 target sentences with VG value and ii) 1 target sentence with PT value. Data processing comprised the following steps: i) eye data extraction in BeGaze software; ii) segmentation of audio signals in Praat software; iii) extraction of the means of the physical parameters of the segments; iv) tabulation of the acoustic and eye relationship data; v) application of quantitative tests. In the prosodic analysis, the participants present in all the markers evaluated, inconsistency regarding the reduction or maintenance of CT and CPT in f0 and Intensity and no elongation of TT. The comparison of the averages of the eye variables between the FP and FL groups proves that the more complex the text, the greater the difference between the fluency groups. The results of the correlation analysis indicate that there is a significant correlation between the variables internal pause and fixations in test 1 (in texts 1 and 2) and internal pause and revisits in test 2 (in texts 2 and 3), which characterizes difficulty in reading processing due to internal pauses, revisits and fixations within the sentence; and between the variables End Pause and Fixations in test 3 (in text 1) and end pause and revisits in test 4 (in text 2), which means that when the duration of the amount of fixations and revisits increases, there is an increase in the duration of the end pause, which may prove the dwell-time effect (HIROTANI; FRAZIER; RAYNER, 2006; RAYNER, 1998), in which readers remain at the end of a clause until the resolution of the present clause. Overall, the data showed that there is a strong correlation between fixation, revisit, and pause duration in the processing of punctuation marks during spoken reading.
