This study is an analysis of how delusional events were expressed linguistically by a patient with schizophrenia, based on the assumption that there is a relation between the core concept of an event and how this event is expressed in grammatical constructions. The aim was todescribe the basic schematic forms related to those delusional events, taking as a starting point their expression in the argument structure. The corpus was obtained from the transcript of interviews, oral narratives and spontaneous conversations of a patient with schizophrenia,recorded in the documentary called Estamira, by Marcos Prado. The case study conducted in this work suggests that a schematic kind of semiotic interaction represents well semantic and syntactic aspects of the expression of persecutory and influence delusions. This schematicform of semiotic interaction (or cognitive schema) composes the core of delusional events in so far as it relates to a basic form of interpretation and organization of the events in experience. Part of the delusional meaning can be understood, therefore, through processes ofconceptual integration organized by these semiotic forms. These findings corroborate Brandt (2007)'s hypothesis of a basic organization of consciousness in terms of semiotic interactions and suggest, albeit preliminary, the possibility of describing delusional events in a linguisticbasis, which would help make criteria for description of these and other psychopathological symptoms more objective.
