Acesso em:.2318-1346https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/12545This study presents two problems: what Social Representations do the PARFOR undergraduates of Letters - Portuguese Language of the Federal University of Pará have on the Deaf? And, what is the possible effect of the discipline of Brazilian Sign Language on the (re) construction of representations that undergraduates have on the Deaf? In this research, a qualitative field research was conducted with emphasis on the Theory of Social Representations of Moscovici's procedural characteristic (2009) for dealing with the focus of the genesis of Social Representations, analyzing the processes of their formation considering the historicity and the context of production. The interviewees were 03 undergraduate students of the Portuguese Language course Parfor / UFPA, who attended the Brazilian Sign Language course. In the systematization and analysis of the data, we used the technique of Content Analysis with emphasis on categorization. Analyzing the results it was observed that the subjects surveyed had Social Representations about Deafness in the field of Normality and re-signified them to Difference as Alterity.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Representações sociaisSurdezLibrasEnsino de língua portuguesaArtigo de Periódicohttp://dx.doi.org/10.18542/nra.v7i1.6978
