No. of bitstreams: 1 Patricia Santos Machado.pdf: 1937071 bytes, checksum: c8fc421ac4ce74e154de64ca34d6f0db (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-04-28 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / A study on the symbolic and self-defining constructions of the Woman in the narrative and the structures of female characters in the Disney Studios production Maleficent (2014) – USA. The plot is inspired on the fairy tale “The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood” but from a feminine standpoint, widening the possibilities of interpretation and allowing for a rupture from the dichotomic paradigm related to the struggle between “Good versus Evil”. This research aims at studying the evolution of the archetypical imaginary constructs of the characters in Maleficent in contrast with female identity in contemporary culture. For that end, the theoretical frame of reference includes the study of social imaginaries through the works of Durand, Edgar Morin and, most notably, Michel Maffesoli; psychoanalytical concepts from the works of de C.G. Jung, Erich Neumann, Marie-Louise Von Franz and Clarissa Pinkola Estés; Stuart Hall’s, Laura Mulvey’s and Gilles Lipovetsky’s theories of Cultural Studies with an emphasis on gender; and also ecofeminism, through the works of authors such as Vandana Shiva and Maria Mies. Our selected theoretical-methodological reference is the Depth Hermeneutics, with a view to the interpretation of the symbolic structure of our study. As a result of this research we verify a process of saturation of identity and symbolic patterns originated in Modernity, and the evolution of new dynamics in mediatic and communication narratives. / Estudo sobre as construções simbólicas e identitárias da mulher presentes na narrativa e na estrutura das personagens femininas do filme Malévola (2014) – produção dos estúdios Disney (EUA). A narrativa é inspirada no conto de fadas “A Bela Adormecida do Bosque” e distingue-se pela perspectiva feminina, modificando as possibilidades de interpretação, além de possibilitar a quebra do paradigma dicotômico relacionado ao Bem e ao Mal. A pesquisa tem por objetivo estudar a evolução das construções imaginárias da mulher no cinema e traçar paralelos entre as características arquetípicas das personagens de Malévola em relação à identidade da mulher na contemporaneidade. Para tal, será tomado como referencial teórico os estudos do imaginário social, com as obras de Gilbert Durand, Edgar Morin e, em especial, Michel Maffesoli; conceitos da psicanálise a partir dos trabalhos de C.G. Jung, Erich Neumann, Marie-Louise Von Franz e Clarissa Pinkola Estés; as teorias de Stuart Hall, Laura Mulvey e Gilles Lipovetsky relacionadas aos estudos culturais com ênfase em gênero; e também o ecofeminismo através dos trabalhos de autoras como Vandana Shiva e Maria Mies. Nosso referencial teórico-metodológico é a Hermenêutica de Profundidade (HP) visando à interpretação da estrutura simbólica de nosso objeto. Resultam desta pesquisa a verificação de um processo de saturação de padrões identitários e simbólicos provindos da modernidade e a evolução de novas dinâmicas nas narrativas presentes nas mídias e na comunicação.

Ce travail de recherche porte dans sa première partie, sur la situation linguistique du Liban, sur la volonté d’étudier la place que la langue française y occupe par rapport aux autres langues en présence, notamment par rapport à l’anglais. Au-delà du contexte, nous présentons aussi dans cette première le corpus suivi du cadre théorique et méthodologique. Pour ce faire, nous avons fait appel dans le cadre théorique aux procédés linguistiques tels que l’emprunt linguistique, l’alternance codique, le calque et l’interférence, ainsi qu’à des concepts sociolinguistiques essentiels, pour montrer comment l’auteur revendique sa langue source à travers la langue d’écriture, dont, entre autres, l’imaginaire linguistique/culturel et les représentations sociales. Dans la deuxième partie, on met en exergue le phénomène du contact des langues et leurs usages au sein de la société libanaise qui a engendré des parlers hybrides comme, entre autres, le franbanais. Par ailleurs, cette étude peut affirmer l’ancrage de la culture et de la langue française au Liban. Quant à la troisième partie de la thèse, elle est consacrée à l’étude socio-sémiotique des articles et des dessins, extraits du journal l’OLJ, dans le but de montrer comment les différentes langues et cultures se nouent de façon harmonieuse dans la presse libanaise et comment chaque langue possède ses particularités langagières liées aux représentations culturelles de la communauté linguistique qui en fait usage. Concrètement l’analyse porte sur les articles de la journaliste Azouri ainsi que les commentaires qui accompagnent les dessins de la dessinatrice Phares. Quant aux dessins, nous avons procédé par une étude sémiotique pour les analyser dans un rapport texte/image. Ainsi, nous avons convoqué les théories de Laurence Bardin, Martine Joly et Roland Barthes, qui prennent en considération l’aspect symbolique et polysémique de l’image visuelle ainsi que les dimensions idéologiques et culturelles du récepteur. Notre travail de recherche, qui se situe donc à la croisée de différentes disciplines, se propose de mettre l’accent sur les dimensions socioculturelles dans le décryptage d’un message donné. / This research concerns, in its first part, the linguistic situation in Lebanon and the ability to analyze the position of the French language in relation to the other existing languages, in particular English. Beyond the context, we will also present the corpus followed by the rhetorical framework and the methodology. For this purpose, we relied on linguistic processes like linguistic borrowing, code-switching, calque and interference as well as central socio-linguistic concepts, in order to show how the author claims his original language through written language, including among others, the linguistic/cultural imagination and social representations. The second part emphasizes the phenomena of language contact and its use in Lebanese society, which has generated hybrid languages like “franbanais”. Furthermore, this work could prove the anchoring of the French culture and language in Lebanon. The third part of this thesis is devoted to the socio-semiotic study of articles and pictures, extracted from the OLJ journal, in order to show how different languages and cultures connect harmoniously in Lebanese media and how every language possesses its linguistic particularities related to the cultural representations of the linguistic community speaking that language. This review is concretely about the articles written by the journalist Azouri as well as the commentaries accompanied by pictures drawn by Phares. Regarding the pictures, we proceeded by a semiotic study in order to analyze the rapport between the text and the picture. Then, we convened the theories of Laurence Basin, Martine Holy and Roland Barthes, who take into consideration the symbolic and the polysemic aspect of the picture as well as the ideologic and cultural dimension of the receiver. Our research, which crosses different disciplines, proposes to emphasize the socio-cultural dimensions in the decryption of a presented message.
