The modern city life predicts by the means of concentrating people in huge buildings or by the ever-growing communication system, like the internet, a constant nearness between humans. However, despite the urban mass and the technical resources that allow greater people-to-people interactions, a forceful loss of relationship intimacy and affective and body isolation are present. This way, questions about the chat rooms and it s image of free friendship, love partnership and loneliness ending philosophy arouse. The fast typing words, the pattern of messages and the amount above the quality of the contacts are some of the free will restraining aspects to chat rooms haunters, giving them a fake feeling of freedom. Among the thousands of World Wide Web based love relations, one rarely overcomes the virtual ambience to be an actual encounter, leading us to discern a restrictive chat logic: the substitution of the pleasure by the pre-pleasure . Focused in obtain data about this study subject, two scales were built as a research instrument one for verify the search for love relationships through chat rooms and another to evaluate the chat room members loneliness those scales formed a questionnaire witch was presented to 60 persons in 20-30 years age ruled chat rooms. The results confirmed the association between loneliness and love relationship search in chat rooms. To support the analysis, we used some concepts of the critical theory of society, mainly the culture industry one, developed by Horkheimer and Adorno. The principles of shock , and the two types of Experience (Erlebnis the shallow experience and Erfahrung the profound experience) postulated by Benjamin and the freudian psychoanalysis were also used, the later in our debate about love. We concluded that the fugacity of the chat room based love relationships and the loneliness as observed on many users are also linked to objective aspects and not to a pure subjective condition / Este trabalho se propõe a investigar a possível associação entre a procura de relações amorosas por meio das salas de bate-papo disponíveis na Internet e a solidão. A vida citadina na atualidade prevê uma aproximação crescente entre as pessoas, seja por meio das grandiosas construções que concentram multidões, seja pela ampliação dos sistemas de comunicação, dentre os quais focalizamos a Internet. Entretanto, apesar dos aglomerados urbanos e dos diversos recursos técnicos que supõem uma integração desmedida entre os sujeitos, o que amplamente vigora é a ausência de intimidade entre os homens e a sua condição de isolamento corporal e afetivo. Do que decorre o questionamento sobre os chats, aos quais se vincula a imagem de liberdade para fazer amigos, encontrar parceiros amorosos e escapar da solidão. Observamos que a padronização dos contatos, o ritmo acelerado das palavras digitadas e a ênfase na quantidade de diálogos, em detrimento de seu conteúdo são apenas alguns dos aspectos que tolhem a espontaneidade dos freqüentadores e incidem na pseudoliberdade. Por sua vez, os milhares de contatos amorosos mediados por computadores conectados à Rede Mundial raramente extrapolam a virtualidade para se transformarem em encontros presenciais, o que nos permite verificar a lógica delimitadora dos chats: a substituição do prazer pelo pré-prazer. Com o propósito de levantar dados sobre o objeto deste estudo, elaboramos um instrumento de pesquisa composto por duas escalas uma para aferir a procura por relacionamentos amorosos nos chats e a outra para verificar a solidão dos freqüentadores desse aparato. As escalas foram apresentadas, sob a forma de questionário, a 60 sujeitos presentes em salas de bate-papo dirigidas à faixa etária de 20 a 30 anos. Os resultados confirmaram que a procura por relacionamentos amorosos nos chats está associada à solidão. Para fundamentarmos as análises, privilegiamos alguns conceitos da teoria crítica da sociedade, especialmente o de indústria cultural, desenvolvido por Horkheimer e Adorno, e as noções de vivência , experiência e choque postuladas por Benjamin. Recorremos, ainda, à psicanálise freudiana, essencialmente ao discorrer sobre o amor. Por fim, concluímos que a fugacidade dos relacionamentos amorosos efetuados nos chats e a solidão em muitos dos usuários se associam também a aspectos objetivos e não a uma condição puramente subjetiva

[pt] O presente trabalho identifica e compara aspectos culturais e linguísticos inseridos em relacionamentos amorosos entre brasileiros e britânicos, a partir de duas categorias sugeridas pelo interculturalista Geert Hofstede: individualismo e masculinidade; e da categorização de Richard D. Lewis da cultura brasileira como multiativa e da cultura britânica como ativo-linear. O objetivo desse estudo é o de entender melhor como esses relacionamentos interculturais se dão, seus desafios, seus sucessos, investigando qual a influência da cultura e da língua nessas relações. Para nossa análise, utilizamos dados gerados por meio de entrevistas e questionários realizados com dez casais - todos formados por um/a brasileiro/a e um/a britânico/a envolvidos em um relacionamento amoroso. Entre os nossos resultados, identificamos os seguintes elementos que influenciam a relação desses casais: (i) o papel da mulher na relação; (ii) ciúmes, traição e dependência emocional; (iii) linguagem verbal, não verbal e estilística; e (iv) o lugar que o casal escolhe para viver. Portanto, esta pesquisa sinaliza os desafios encontrados pelos casais interculturais e apresenta sugestões, dadas pelos próprios informantes, para entendermos essas diferenças e tentarmos evitar que elas interfiram de maneira negativa nos relacionamentos de mesmo tipo. Por meio desse estudo, esperamos evidenciar a importância de se trabalhar esta temática em sala de aula, dando mais subsídios e embasamento teórico aos professores de PL2E, para que possam mostrar aos alunos de português a importância de se entender não só a língua como, principalmente, a cultura do outro, e contribuindo, assim, para o desenvolvimento das competências comunicativa e intercultural dos aprendizes. / [en] The present work identifies and compares cultural and linguistic aspects inserted in love relationships between Brazilians and Britons, from two categories suggested by the interculturalist Geert Hofstede: individualism and masculinity; and Richard D. Lewis s categorization of Brazilian culture as multiactive and British culture as active-linear. The objective of this study is to better understand how these intercultural relationships are given, their challenges, their successes, investigating the influence of culture and language on these relationships. For our analysis, we used data generated through interviews and questionnaires conducted with ten couples - all formed by a Brazilian and a British person involved in a loving relationship. Among our results, we identified the following elements that influence the relationship of these couples: (i) the role of women in the relationship; (ii) jealousy, betrayal and emotional dependence; (iii) verbal, nonverbal and stylistic language; and (iv) the place the couple chooses to live. Therefore, this research indicates the challenges encountered by intercultural couples and presents suggestions, given by the informants themselves, to understand these differences and try to avoid them interfering in a negative way in relationships of the same type. Through this study, we hope to highlight the importance of working this theme in the classroom, giving more subsidies and theoretical background to the teachers of PL2E, so that they can present to Portuguese students the importance of understanding not only the language but, mainly, one s culture, and thus contributing to the development of the communicative and intercultural competences of apprentices.

Den här studien undersöker hur heteronormativitet finns synligt i reality-TV. För att utröna hur detta framställs undersöks ett avsnitt av Bonde söker fru och ett av Tro, hopp och kärlek. Båda programmen är dejtingprogram som sändes hösten 2016. Studien utgår från queerteorin som ifrågasätter heteronormativiteten och hur den utövar makt över de som inte lever efter den normen. Metoden för studien är kritisk diskursanalys som används för att synliggöra vilka språkliga grepp som används för att konstruera heteronormativiteten och även för att synliggöra maktstrukturer. Syftet med studien är att avslöja strukturer som konstruerar normativa respektive avvikande kärleksrelationer. Studien identifierar fem olika teman som konstrueras kring kärleksförhållandet: Ett komplett liv, Den stora kärleken, Livet utan kärleksförhållande, Jag är redo och Det mätbara målet. De heteronormativa föreställningarna syns genom att kärleksförhållandet konstrueras som en problemlösare, kärleksförhållandet ses som den högst prioriterade relationen i de medverkandes liv, singelskapet medför ett utanförskap och en känsla av misslyckande samt att målet med kärleksrelationen är en långvarig relation med en önskan om reproduktion. Studien antyder också på att det även finns krav på när kärleksförhållandet bör inträffa i livet. / This study examines how heteronormativity is constructed in reality-TV. The study anylizes one episode of Bonde söker fru (the Swedish version of Farmer wants a wife) and one episode of the Swedish tv-show Tro, hopp och kärlek (Faith, hope and love). Both of them are dating programmes and were broadcasted during the fall of 2016. The study uses the queer theoretical framework which is questioning the heteronormativity and how it exercises power over the ones not living within the norm. The critical discourse analysis is implemented as both a method and theoretical framework. As a method the critical discourse analysis is used to show how the language constructs heteronormativity and helps the study to expose power structures. The purpose of the study is to expose structures that construct normative and abnormative love relationships. The study identifies five different themes that contributes to the perception of the love relationship: A complete life, The great love, Life without love relationship, I am ready and The measurable goal. The heteronormative ideas shows through the construction of the love relationship as a problem solver, the love relationship is the most prioritised relationship in participant’s lives, being single involves alienation and a feeling of failure as well as the goal of the love relationship is a longlasting relationship  with the desire of reproduction. The study also indicates that there is requirements on when in life the love relationship should occur.

In the twelfth and thirteenth centuries women troubadours in southern France called trobairitz participated in dialogue or debate poems called tensons with male troubadours. Of the nine existing tensons that include a male and a female voice, we will only analyze five tensons with the known identities of both the trobairitz and the troubadour that debate the subject of love, and we will include the following trobairitz tensons in this paper: Alamanda, Isabella, Garsenda, Lombarda and Maria de Ventadorn. We will discuss the thematic elements these five tensons share. Scholars such as Pierre Bec, Peter Dronke and Katharina Wilson note trobairitz' themes vary from those of traditional male troubadours. Troubadours concentrate on the outward or social manifestations of the courtly love game and values, yet trobairitz focus on the intimate, private pleasures of love by deviating from generally accepted courtly love conventions and social behaviors. Since the subject of love is debated in these five tensons, the personal character in these tensons alludes to the trobairitz's life—circumstances and incidents. A trobairitz's personal character is also illustrated in the tenson by her willingness to show personal qualities about a love relationship and as Deborah Perkal-Balinsky calls it "a willingness to deviate from accepted social behavior or perhaps the rules of the game, in an effort to attain the intimate pleasures in a love relationship" (46). The tensons discussed provide valuable information about trobairitz and courtly love—the publicly displayed values of honor, valor and mercy. At times, trobairitz solicit love by revolting against the courtly love rules to win a man. In courtly love tensons, trobairitz use the literary style, courtly vocabulary and courtly values to express both their support and criticism for the system. Through the use of courtly vocabulary, trobairitz conform to the styles developed by troubadours, yet when trobairitz write as female lovers and poets, they also discard the conventions set forth by troubadours, since they are not male lovers and poets. In each tenson the literary mode is man-in-society, and the theme centers around love"”either the praise of it or the blame from lack thereof or both (Hagen 27). In each of the five tensons, there are three common threads in the trobairitz love relationships: (1) in each tenson we see the personal character of the trobairitz; (2) we see them deviate from the accepted social behavior or the rules of the game; and (3) we witness that the trobairitz are usually unhappy with their love relationships. We will examine each tenson individually regarding these three aspects.
