Relacionamentos no capricho: as metáforas conceptuais dos amores juvenis / Relationships in Capricho magazine: the conceptual metaphors of young loveAna Paula Ferreira 24 March 2011 (has links)
Reconhecendo a pluralidade das representações acerca dos relacionamentos amorosos, o presente estudo tem como objetivo verificar o conceito de amor existente em produção impressa, averiguando se há uma forma de relacionar-se privilegiada atualmente por instrumento midiático voltado para a juventude. Para tanto, conta com as contribuições da Linguística Cognitiva, em especial da Teoria da Metáfora Conceptual (Lakoff e Johnson, 1980 e 1999; Kövecses, 2000, 2002 e 2005), estabelecendo um diálogo desta com estudos da Sociologia e da Antropologia (Giddens, 1993; Bauman, 2001, 2004 e 2005; Almeida e Tracy, 2003; Araújo e Castro; 1977; Rezende e Coelho, 2010, entre outros) que têm como foco as emoções e/ou os relacionamentos amorosos. Anteriormente contemplada como mero ornamento da linguagem, a metáfora passa a ser considerada um fenômeno cognitivo, fruto das experiências compartilhadas por um determinado grupo de pessoas. Desse modo, seu estudo possibilita um melhor entendimento sobre os seres humanos e seus sentimentos, e auxilia a enxergar criticamente como grupos sociais enquadram o mundo. No processo de análise das metáforas e dos modos de conceptualização do amor, foram fundamentais os estudos sócio-antropológicos mencionados, os quais permitiram uma visualização mais ampla dos comportamentos amorosos contemporâneos. O corpus foi constituído por artigos da Revista Capricho, selecionados durante doze meses, que trataram sobre relacionamentos amorosos. Nas edições consideradas, as metáforas indicavam, em sua maioria, a conceptualização do amor a partir de um negócio e de uma viagem, confirmando a visão de uma sociedade pautada pelas relações de mercado e utilitarista, assim como o imperativo do movimento ao que os jovens, em especial, encontram-se submetidos. Houve também espaço para outras conceptualizações, nas quais, igualmente, os relacionamentos se mostram fluidos, imediatistas, com validade até o momento em que houver conveniência. Assumir um compromisso significaria abrir mão de um prazer imediato e da liberdade individual em função do outro, um risco muito grande, que não vale a pena a ser corrido diante da incerteza do futuro / Admitting the diversity of representations on loving relationships, this study aims to determine the concept of love that exists in press materials, mainly magazines, checking if there is a kind of relationship privileged nowadays in media projects for youngsters. In order to achieve this, it counts on the contributions of Cognitive Linguistics, particularly the Conceptual Metaphor Theory (Lakoff and Johnson, 1980 e 1999; Kövecses, 2000, 2002 e 2005), establishing a dialogue with studies of Sociology and Anthropology (Giddens, 1993; Bauman, 2001, 2004 and 2005; Almeida and Tracy, 2003; Araújo and Castro, 1977, Rezende and Coelho, 2010, among others) that focus on the emotions and / or romantic relationships. Previously beheld as a mere ornament of language, metaphor is now considered a cognitive phenomenon, the result of the experiences shared by a certain group of people. Thus, studying this phenomenon provides a better understanding of human beings and their feelings, as well as it helps to perceive critically how social groups frame the world. During the process of the analysis of the metaphors and also the ways of conceptualizing love, the socio-anthropological studies mentioned before were fundamental, allowing a greater visualization of contemporary loving behaviors. The corpus comprises articles from Capricho Magazine. They were selected during a twelve-month period. These articles dealt with love relationships. On the magazine issues considered, this work found out that, in most cases, the metaphors indicated that love was conceptualized as a business and as a trip, confirming the vision of a society ruled by market relations and utilitarianism, as well as the imperative of the movement to which young people are submitted. There was also room for other conceptualizations, which also showed that the relationships are fluid, immediate, and useful until the time it is convenient. Accepting commitment would mean to give up an immediate pleasure and individual freedom for the other and it is not worth the risk due to the uncertainty of the future

A Metáfora no Processo de Interação On-Line: uma abordagem semiótica e cognitiva / The metaphor in the process of on-line interaction: a semiotic and cognitive approachAbrão, Jorge Antonio de Moraes 22 October 2018 (has links)
Partindo da ideia de ciberespaço como lugar de interação social, neste trabalho, propomos uma reflexão sobre os processos de produção de significados presentes nas redes sociais. Com esse intuito, buscamos, a partir de uma abordagem inter ou multidisciplinar, entender o papel das metáforas na construção de significados, e como estes podem ser manipulados em um processo interpretativo. Consideramos que se por um lado, na semiótica peirceana, a metáfora pode ser vista como um como um mecanismo responsável pelo crescimento semiótico, devido à transferência de predicados entre símbolos. E, por outro, na Teoria da Metáfora Conceptual, a metáfora é tida como fator indispensável do pensamento e comportamento humano, influenciando como percebemos e compreendemos o mundo e as coisas. É, então, necessário aproximar as duas visões, de modo a promover um maior entendimento desse fenômeno. Assim, apresentamos, primeiramente, alguns pontos principais do que entendemos como signo metafórico, passando para uma síntese da teoria cognitivista para expor aquilo que consideramos como alguns lugares de convergência e relação entre as perspectivas. Em seguida, procuramos estabelecer um debate sobre a interação nas redes sociais na atualidade utilizando as premissas básicas do Interacionismo Simbólico como propostos pelo pensador americano Herbert Blumer. Baseados nesse tripé teórico, voltamos nossa atenção como um mesmo acontecimento é significado e ressignificado nas redes sociais a fim de entender o funcionamento desses processos / Starting from the idea of cyberspace as a place of social interaction, in this work, we propose a reflection on the processes of production of meanings present in social networks. With this aim, we seek, from an inter/multidisciplinary approach, to understand the role of metaphors in the construction of meanings, and how they can be manipulated in an interpretative process. We consider that if, on the one hand, in Peircean semiotics, the metaphor can be seen as one as a mechanism responsible for the semiotic growth, due to the transfer of predicates between symbols. On the other hand, in the Theory of Conceptual Metaphor, the metaphor is understood as an indispensable factor of human thought and behavior, influencing how we perceive and understand the world and things. It is then necessary to approach the two visions, in order to promote a greater understanding of this phenomenon. Thus, we present, first, some main points of what we understand as the metaphorical sign, moving to a synthesis of cognitive theory to expose what we consider as some places of convergence and relationship between perspectives. Next, we try to establish a debate about the interaction in social networks in the present time using the basic premises of the Symbolic Interactionism as proposed by the American thinker Herbert Blumer. Based on this theoretical tripod, we turn our attention to one event. and how it was signified and re-signified in the social networks, aiming to understand the functioning of these processes.

English and Swedish Animal Idioms : A Study of Correspondence and Variation in Content and ExpressionColin, Nathalie January 2006 (has links)
<p>Idioms are found in every language and learning them is an important aspect of the mastery of a language. The English language is no exception as it contains a large number of idioms, which are extensively used. However, because of their rather rigid structure and quite unpredictable meaning, idioms are often considered difficult to learn. Although little research has been done to date on the nature of idioms as well as how they are used, a better understanding of variations in idioms can nevertheless be acquired by looking at some theories and thoughts about their use and their structure.</p><p>The aim of this paper is to examine a number of animal idioms, focusing primarily on English idioms and the similarities and differences found in equivalent Swedish idioms, even when the Swedish idioms do not contain an animal. Two types of studies are presented. In the first one, the English and Swedish animal idioms collected are grouped into four categories. The results of such a categorization show that half of the English animal idioms found have an equivalent in Swedish containing an animal. In the second study, the content, structure, wording, semantics and metaphorical meaning of the animal idioms are analysed and compared. The results indicate that the Swedish animal idioms that correspond to the English animal idioms have, for the most part, the same structures and similar variations in degree of literalness, fixity, manipulation and transformation. Furthermore, the use of metaphor, personification and simile appears to be common both in English and Swedish animal idioms. The role of context and literal and figurative translation are also addressed in this study.</p>

Erdvinės metaforos Daiktavardinių frazių žodyne / Orientational metaphors in the dictionary of Lithuanian Nominal PhrasesDrūlienė, Viltė 04 August 2008 (has links)
Šiame magistro darbe analizuojamos erdvinės metaforos iš Daiktavardinių frazių žodyno. Jame užfiksuoti statistiniu metodu iš Vytauto Didžiojo universiteto Dabartinės lietuvių kalbos tekstyno atrinkti tipiškiausi žodžių junginiai (arba kolokacijos) ir frazės, kuriose pavartotas bent vienas daiktavardis. Laikomasi nuostatos, kad abstrakčiųjų daiktavardžių kolokacijos yra kalbinių metaforų išraiška. Teorinėje darbo dalyje aptariamos plačios ir įvairialypės kolokacijos ir metaforos sąvokos. Čia kalbinė metafora arba metaforinis pasakymas suprantamas kaip kognityviosios kalbotyros šalininkų aprašomos žmogaus sąmonėje egzistuojančios konceptualiosios metaforos kalbinė išraiška.
Pasirinktos erdvinės metaforos – tai tos, kurių žodinėje rai�����koje randama įvairių erdvės elementų įvardijimų. Išsamesnei analizei darbo objektas susiaurintas iki vertikaliųjų metaforų, kuriomis metaforizuojamas objektas (reiškinys) projektuojama vertikalėje. Aprašius atrankos kriterijus ir problemas, sudarytas vertikaliųjų metaforų ir susijusių frazeologizmų sąrašas, tada junginiai suskirstyti į semantines grupes pagal nurodomą vietą vertikalėje ar judėjimą kuria nors jos kryptimi. Aptartos tipiškiausios kiekvienos grupės kolokacijos, sutelkiant dėmesį į vertikalumą žyminčius žodžius ir metaforizuojamus objektus išreiškiančius kolokatus.
Apibendrinus dažniausias kolokacijas, duomenys sisteminti, nustatytos ryškiausios konceptualiosios metaforos, kurios rodo analizuotos lietuvių kalbos vartotojų... [toliau žr. visą tekstą] / Present research paper deals with the specific group of conceptual metaphors, derived from the Dictionary of Lithuanian Nominal Phrases. The dictionary is compiled from collocations, automatically extracted from the Corpus of Present Day Lithuanian Language. All collocations contain at least one noun. The dictionary is a suitable source for the extraction of metaphors since it contains a lot of abstract noun collocations that in most cases are metaphorical.
The paper presents theoretical approaches towards both issues under analysis, i.e. metaphors and collocations. The specific object of investigation, however, is conceptual, or dead, metaphor. It is defined here as a linguistic expression of a conceptual model of a world view. Following the cognitive approach it is assumed that human conceptual system, comprising cognition, language and memory, is metaphorical in nature.
The metaphors under investigation contain nominations space or spacial elements in their linguistic expressions in general and specifically those, that deal with vertical scale and motion along a vertical dimension. After describing the identification criteria and procedures, the outcome of analysis is presented, i.e. the list of metaphorical phrases and idioms that are further subdivided according to the spacial dimensions, specifically the place or direction in the vertical scale. The most typical collocations of every group are discussed paying attention to the semantics of verticality.

Legitimization and delegitimization through metaphors / Konceptualiosios metaforos raiška legitimizacijos ir delegitimizacijos procesuoseBalčiūnaitė, Jovita 31 July 2012 (has links)
The purpose of this research was to investigate how political leaders of the United Kingdom and Lithuania, David Cameron and Andrius Kubilius legitimize themselves and delegitimize their opponents through metaphors. To achieve this aim Critical Metaphor Analysis was employed and the following objectives were set: to identify metaphorical expressions used in political speeches; to interpret them and to classify them according to their underlying conceptual metaphor; finally, to explain the way conceptual metaphors and metaphorical expressions convey how political leaders legitimize themselves and delegitimize the opponents. The results of the study demonstrated that the conceptual metaphors used for legitimization and delegitimization are the same in both political leaders’ speeches. However, metaphorical expression used for legitimization and delegitimization displays different characteristics. It also demonstrated that politicians tend to use more metaphorical expressions to convey legitimization than delegitimization. / Magistro darbo tema „Konceptualios metaforos raiška legitimizacijos ir delegitimizacijos procesuose“. Šio tiriamojo darbo tikslas yra išsiaiškinti kokiomis konceptualiosiomis metaforomis Davidas Cameronas ir Andrius Kubilius legitimizuoja save ir delegitimizuoja savo oponentus. Buvo iškelti šie tiriamojo darbo uždaviniai: pirmiausia, surasti metaforinius pasakymus politinėse kalbose, tuomet suklasifikuoti šiuos pasakymus pagal priklausymą konceptualiąjai metaforai ir, galiausiai, paaiškinti kaip metaforiniai pasakymai atskleidžia būdus, kuriais politikai legitimizuoja save ir delegitimizuoja savo oponentus. Tyrime buvo naudojamas Kritinis metaforos analizės metodas pasiūlytas Charterio-Blacko, kuris susideda iš trijų dalių, tai: metaforinių pasakynų suradimas, jų priskyrimas konceptualiąjai metaforai ir galiausiai, paaiškinimas. Pagrindinis tyrimo klausimas buvo išsiaiškinti, kuo skiriasi konceptualiųjų metaforų naudojimas legitimizacijai ir delegitimizacijai Davidas Cameronas ir Andriaus Kubiliaus politinėse kalbose. Tyrimas parodė, kad tiek legitimizacijai tiek delegitimizacijai abu politikai naudoja tas pačias konceptualiąsias metaforas: POLITIKA YRA KARAS, POLITIKA YRA KELIONĖ, ir POLITIKA YRA PASTATAS. Taip pat tyrimas parodė, kad Davidas Cameronas ir Andrius Kubilius naudoja daugiau metaforinių pasakymų išreikšti legitimizacijai nei delegitimizacijai. Tai buvo pastebėta, kai delegitimizuodami savo oponentus politikai nenaudojo kai kurių konceptualiųjų atitikmenų... [toliau žr. visą tekstą]

Die verhouding tussen verhaal en metafoor in Agaat (Marlene van Niekerk) / Hester Elzebet VenterVenter, Hester Elzebet January 2009 (has links)
The novel Agaat by Marlene van Niekerk is a highly complex text. One of the most compelling
aspects of the novel is the way in which the author constructs an underlying metaphorical grid
which determines the composition of the novel. The motives in the novel cannot be regarded
merely as motives because specific prominent and powerful metaphors are continually exploited
by variation and extension. The complicated relationship between narrative and metaphor on
different levels is of great importance in the interpretation of the novel.
Due to the complexity of the text, the dominant metaphors cannot be analyzed in the traditional
manner. In this study I want to demonstrate that conceptual blending theory, which can be
regarded as a branch of conceptual metaphor theory, offers a theoretical framework that can be
used to understand the underlying cognitive functioning of the interaction between author, text
and reader.
This dissertation will examine the processes of blending shaped from the mottos posted at the
beginning of the novel. The three mottos, the music motto, the embroidery motto and the farming
motto, act throughout the novel as a backdrop against which events in the novel can be
interpreted. The blending formed from these mottos merge with other metaphors in the novel in
order to generate meaning. The three mottos were taken from the introductions of the FAKVolksangbundel,
the embroidery book Borduur so and the Hulpboek vir boere in Suid-Afrika.
The three books are used by Milla to educate and teach Agaat. She uses the books to "create"
Agaat and to mould her into the person that Milla wants her to be. The mottos stress the uplifting
of the people and the creation of a true Afrikaner identity. Agaat accomplishes everything that
the books require of her, she becomes an expert in the areas that determine the Afrikaner
identity. However, as a brown woman, she is still not considered a member of community or as a
fully acceptable civilized woman.
The meanings of the other important metaphor in the novel, the mirror metaphor, are also
investigated extensively. The mirror plays an important role in the relationship between Milla and Agaat. The mirror is also important in Milla's confrontation with herself, especially in her
experience of her illness and her acceptance of her imminent death. The mirror is also used in the
depiction of the relationship between characters and the experience of each other as the "Other".
The blending of the mirror metaphor and the link that can be established with the theories of
Lacan are part of one of the main blendings formed from the mirror metaphor. This metaphor
also interacts with the embroidery metaphor. The mirror reflects images to the characters and via
the characters to the readers which enforce moral judgments about perceptions and practices.
The final part of the dissertation analyses how the dominant metaphors, namely music,
embroidery, farming and the mirror, blend in multiple ways in the text to create new domains of
meaning. The four main metaphors also blend with secondary metaphors in the novel in order to
generate meaning. One of the important secondary metaphors is the "waterhondjies". The
"waterhondjies" blend with Guido Gezelle's poem "Het Schrijverke". There is also emphasis on
the relationship between writing and the "waterhondjies". The blending of the caeser butterfly
plays an important role in the novel as well.
In the final chapter the statement is made that the metaphors and symbols in Agaat cannot merely
be regarded and interpreted as traditional motives, but rather as examples of cognitive blending.
The types of blending in the novel require the cooperation of the reader in all cases. The reader
must, in some cases, as with the mirror metaphor and the metaphor of the "waterhondjies",
identify and activate the second domain of the blend. In the case of the mottos the different
domains of the blend are activated by the author and the reader only needs to provide an
interpretation. At the end of the dissertation the conclusion is made that the blending theory
offers a suitable method and terminology to analyze the complex processes of generating
meaning in the novel. / Thesis (M.A. (Afrikaans and Dutch))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2010

Emotion Expressing Idioms in English and Vietnamese: A Contrastive AnalysisVan-trao Nguyen Unknown Date (has links)
Abstract Language is a repertoire of culture and a powerful and versatile medium in communication. Idioms mirror human wisdom in the process of conceptualization of the world. Idioms have interlocked and grown into records of a community’s past culture. Idioms therefore constitute a rich, but at the same time elusive, area of cross-cultural exchanges. Idioms reflect the colour and variety of human social activities, and so play an important role in the linguistic ontologization of emotions. The vocabulary of emotions has been the object of intensive investigations in many languages, but bibliographical exploration reveals that idioms as a component of the lexicon are not yet part of the main field of theoretical interest. In particular, while there have been studies of idioms of emotion in English, there have been few on emotion idioms in Vietnamese, and very few systematic investigations of emotion idioms (EIs) across English and Vietnamese. Hence, our linguistic study of the conceptualization of emotions in English and Vietnamese will significantly contribute to the development of this research domain with data from a language other than English. The study undertakes a contrastive investigation of idioms that express the seven basic emotional concepts of HAPPINESS, SADNESS, ANGER, DISGUST, LOVE, FEAR, and DESIRE in English and Vietnamese. There are three foci: (1) similarities and differences in formal structure between the EIs in English and Vietnamese; (2) similarities and differences in semantics between such idioms; and (3) an investigation of the patterning and regularities of the established similarities and differences between the EIs in the two languages. To the end, we have conducted a hand search approach of the dictionaries in both languages, which has enabled the establishing of a corpus of 1065 entries (603 for English and 462 for Vietnamese). As regards the formal structure, the study sets up the lexicogrammatical frames for the canonical forms and variation patterns of the idioms, and interrelates quantitatively and quantitatively the relationship of the idioms’ variant form vis-à-vis the canonical form. In light of the findings, the study has shown that a high level of canonicity is observed in the idioms in both English and Vietnamese. In general, they conform to a restricted number of construction types: verbal, nominal, adjectival, prepositional, and sentential. Nevertheless, many other idioms permit variable flexibility in their composition: the substitutability of their component parts, insertion of lexical items, and some variation in syntactic patterning. For the idioms which are logged as canonical and variant, we have suggested rules to cover the patterns. As regards the semantic features of the idioms, the study is substantially reliant on the theory of conceptual metaphor (CMT) and metonymy, as first developed by Lakoff & Johnson (1980), to analyze the data. The data analysis leads to the discovery of conceptual mappings/correspondences from the various source domains on to the target domains of emotions, which are very productive of idioms. An in-depth analysis of cross-linguistic and cross-cultural aspects in the idioms is provided to determine similarities and differences in terms of conceptualization of the emotions between the two languages. The contrastive analysis of idioms reported in the traditional literature is usually the comparison of idioms with body-part terms: e.g., mát mặt (‘cool face’) ‘HAPPINESS’ in Vietnamese; lose one’s head in English, animals: e.g., gầm như hổ đói (‘roar like tiger hungry’); go ape ‘ANGER’, and colours: e.g., đỏ mặt tía tai (‘red face purple ear’); blue in the face ‘ANGER’. The present analysis seeks greater explanatory depth and theoretical grounding in the framework of cognitive linguistics. We present the semantic patterning of the idioms, and the patterning in turn reveals how English and Vietnamese people talk about and structure the abstract conceptual domains (i.e., emotions) (Gibbs & Wilson, 2002). In light of the findings, this research has revealed both commonalities and differences in the conceptualization of the emotions in English and Vietnamese. The affinities are grounded in common bodily experiences. On the other hand, cross-cultural variations are also obvious. The most important conclusion that can be drawn for the study is that metaphors and metonymies involved in emotion-expressing idioms are not only heavily subject to physiological basis (Solomon, 1984), but also to cultural influences on the basis of the cultural image schemas (Dobrovol'skij & Piirainen, 2006; Emanatian, 1995; Geeraerts & Grondelaers, 1995; Ungerer, 1993). The thesis also presents implications concerning the linguistic ontologization of emotions, and their application to second language learning and the translation of idioms.

Previous issue date: 2015-08-31 / The present study aims to investigate the presence of operative moral notions systematically metaphorical conceptualization of terms recurring in sermons delivered by Priest Antonio Vieira. Specifically, we intend to delineate how morality is embedded to the metaphorical conceptualization of lexical items: 1- God, man, divine law, sin, scripture (gospel); 2 life, soul, salvation, blessing, grace, glory, evoked in Vieira's preaching. We propose also outline the conceptual frameworks evident from the correlation between morality and metaphorical concept of the above terms. Thus, we start from two assumptions: the first is that, in the religious discourse of Vieira, the metaphorical conceptualization of previous terms cited, underlie moral foundations that operate systematically. Our second hypothesis is that the items: life, soul, salvation, blessing, grace and glory, so-called "spiritual goods" in religious discourse, are designed metaphorically as material goods, subject to the guidance of an accounting morality governing their acquisitions or transfers. Such an approach closer, so the spiritual matters of financial transactions. To achieve the goals and confirmation of our hypotheses, this research was based on the theoretical background developed by Lakoff and employees, more specifically, in the theories of Conceptual Metaphor (2002 [1980]), the Idealized Cognitive Models (1987) and System hypothesis metaphorical detailed Morality in Lakoff (1995) and Lakoff and Johnson (1999). In this way, our research is affiliated to the field of Cognitive Semantics. Such theoretical assumptions served as essential foundations for conducting a qualitative analysis of the data extracted from the Priest Vieira's sermons. From these driven analysis devices it was possible verify that the strict father model, based on notions of moral order and moral strength, as absolute moral authority, it was revealed prototypical source to the meaning of the divine figure. So, in the speech of Priest Antonio Vieira, God was conceptualized metaphorically as father (parent or adoptive), judge, king and to lender. Although less prominent, in that speech, other moral line to the conception of God was identified, the moral of the nurturant father that prioritizes the care and protection, God was pastor, leaving morally guard and protect his flock (church) of unconditionally. Our second hypothesis was confirmed. We found that life, soul, salvation, blessing, grace and glory, spiritual items, discursively were raised in terms of valuable material possessions, taking thus the financial practices (transactions for the purchase or exchange of goods) as domain source. Before this situation, certify that the procedures for the negotiation of these items in the religious sphere are subjugated to the line of morality, more exactly, a retributive moral accounting, the basis of retributive justice established by the absolute moral authority of STRICT GOD-FATHER. / O presente estudo tem como objetivo investigar a presença de noções morais operantes sistematicamente à conceptualização metafórica de termos recorrentes em sermões proferidos por Padre Antônio Vieira. Especificamente, pretendemos delinear o modo como a moralidade está imbricada à conceptualização metafórica dos itens lexicais: 1- Deus, homem, lei divina, pecado, escritura sagrada (evangelho); 2- vida, alma, salvação, bênção, graça, glória, evocados na pregação de Vieira. Propomo-nos, também, esboçar os quadros conceptuais evidenciados a partir da correlação entre moralidade e conceito metafórico dos termos supracitados. Desse modo, partimos de duas hipóteses: a primeira é a de que, no discurso religioso de Vieira, à conceptualização metafórica dos termos suprarreferenciados, subjazem fundamentos morais que operam sistematicamente. Nossa segunda hipótese é a de que os itens: vida, alma, salvação, bênção, graça e glória, ditos “bens espirituais”, no discurso religioso em questão, são concebidos metaforicamente como bens materiais, estando sujeitos à orientação de uma moralidade contábil que rege suas aquisições ou transferências. Tal enfoque aproxima, portanto, as questões espirituais das transações financeiras. Para a consecução dos objetivos e confirmação de nossas hipóteses, a presente pesquisa pautou-se no panorama teórico desenvolvido por Lakoff e colaboradores, mais especificamente, nas teorias da Metáfora Conceptual (2002 [1980]), dos Modelos Cognitivos Idealizados (1987) e na hipótese do Sistema Metafórico da Moralidade detalhada em Lakoff (1995) e em Lakoff e Johnson (1999). Desse modo, nossa investigação está filiada ao campo da Semântica Cognitiva. Tais pressupostos teóricos serviram de fundamentos essenciais para a condução de uma análise qualitativa dos dados extraídos dos sermões de padre Vieira. A partir desses dispositivos de análise acionados, foi possível constatarmos que o modelo de pai severo, fundamentado nas noções da ordem moral e força moral, como autoridade moral absoluta, revelou-se fonte prototípica à significação da figura divina. Portanto, no discurso vieiriano, de maneira sobressaliente, Deus foi conceptualizado metaforicamente como pai (genitor ou adotivo), juiz, rei e até credor. Embora sendo menos proeminente, no referido discurso, outra via moral para a concepção de Deus foi identificada, pela moral do pai cuidadoso que prioriza o cuidado e proteção, Deus exerceu o papel de pastor, cabendo moralmente guardar e proteger seu rebanho (igreja) de forma incondicional. Nossa segunda hipótese também foi confirmada. Verificamos que vida, alma, salvação, bênção, graça e glória, itens do âmbito espiritual, foram evocados discursivamente em termos de bens materiais valiosos, tomando, assim, as práticas financeiras (transações para aquisição ou permuta de bens) como domínio-fonte. Ante esse quadro, atestamos que os trâmites para a negociação desses itens na esfera religiosa estão subjugados à linha da moralidade, mais exatamente, a uma contabilidade moral retributiva, base da justiça retributiva instaurada pela autoridade moral absoluta de DEUS-PAI SEVERO.

Previous issue date: 2011-03-31 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The present work aims to describe the metaphorical linguistic expressions and their conceptual metaphors, recurrent in the lesson discursive genre. The hypothesis that guides this research is that the conceptual metaphors are present in the speech of Portuguese Language teachers through the linguistic expressions, which reveal the language conception that supports their pedagogical practice. To prove this hypothesis we used as theoretical reference the following theories: The Theory of Conceptual Metaphor and Language Conceptions postulated by Linguistics. The corpus of our research consists of twelve lessons of Portuguese Language, six lessons were recorded in elementary school and the others in high school, during September, October and November in 2009. The results not only confirmed the hypothesis, as they pointed out that most teachers say that adopt the perspective of language as a place of human interaction, but we perceived that the lessons are still worked in a traditional way. / Neste trabalho é feita uma descrição das expressões linguísticas metafóricas e suas respectivas metáforas conceptuais, recorrentes no gênero discursivo aula. A hipótese que norteia esta investigação é que as metáforas conceptuais estão presentes no discurso dos professores de Língua Portuguesa através de manifestações linguísticas, que acabam revelando a concepção de linguagem que alicerça sua prática pedagógica. Para comprovar tal hipótese foram utilizados como referencial teórico duas teorias: A Teoria da Metáfora Conceptual e os Conceitos de Linguagem postulados pela Linguística. O corpus de nossa pesquisa é constituído de doze aulas de Língua Portuguesa, sendo seis gravadas no Ensino Fundamental e as outras seis no Ensino Médio, coletadas nos meses de setembro, outubro e novembro de 2009. Os resultados obtidos não só confirmaram a hipótese levantada, como apontaram que, por mais que os professores informantes digam que adotam a perspectiva de língua enquanto lugar de interação humana, na prática as aulas continuam sendo trabalhadas de maneira tradicional.
