Resumo: |
The present thesis discusses the form in which the discourses of epitaphs, in a socio-historically constructed Christian context, deny the finitude of spiritual life and thus promote an idealized image of the deceased in order to eternalize him in the social memory and to extol, as a practice of a religious habitus, a posthumous life in “Eternity”. In the light of this, we have set as an overall goal to analyze the epitaph discourse genre and its socio-historical conditions of production. We have started off with the hypothesis that the Christian man, aware of his death, comforts himself with the certainty of eternal life and yearns to preserve his memory in his social group. The belief in death as a passage to another life perpetuates in the discourse of epitaphs, whose scenography assists the human being to enter “Eternity” and to list the biographical virtues of the deceased, thus legitimizing the perpetuation of his memory. We have adopted the theoretical-methodological framework of Discourse Analysis, especially the categories: discourse genre, scenography, interdiscourse and discursive ethos, proposed by Dominique Maingueneau. To deal with the considerations about death and epitaphs, we have fallen back upon aspects of approaches from Anthropology, Philosophy, Theology and Psychoanalysis. The analyses undertaken in the present research have pointed to, in the workings of the discourses in epitaphs, the crossing of the discursive fields of death, religiosity, literature and history. We have also discovered that the scenographies that engender the discourses of epitaphs range from the promotion of a posthumous life to biography, in which the exemplary behavior of the deceased is extolled. Finally, the research has pointed out to the fact that the discursive ethos of the enunciator corresponds to the positive image of the good Christian |
