This dissertation aims to analyze the subject positions assumed by Neusa Martins Carson - linguist from Santa Mariense who had an important contribution to the Linguistics of Indigenous Languages of South America - in articles published in scientific journals, in the 1970s and 1980s, available in the documentary fund that composes the Documentation and Memory Center of UFSM, in Silveira Martins. Our study is justified by the importance of recovering the works developed by that researcher, as they constitute the History of Linguistic Ideas and the history of Linguistics in Southern Brazil, thus contributing to the understanding of the processes of production of linguistic knowledge in the 20th century. We propose an articulation between Discourse Analysis and History of Linguistic Ideas, since it is in this interim that we are theoretically and methodologically constituted; therefore, we mobilized the notions of conditions of production and circulation of knowledge about the Indigenous Language; production and dissemination of knowledge from magazines; language, subject and history; file, personal files; and subject-position. And yet, in the analytical device, we try to establish some discursive cuts that enabled us to perform the gesture of interpretation on the object, in order to reflect on the subject “linguist-researcher”. In our analyzes, based on the production of knowledge promoted by Neusa Martins Carson, it is possible to observe the functioning of his discourse in different materialities, relating a previous historical moment to a later historical moment: the online one. Since we relate the subject positions assumed with the articles published by her, we highlight among these positions: teacher, linguist and activist of the indigenous cause. The linguist was asked to work with the Macuxi Language of Roraima and to invest in what she believed to be important, thus contemplating the processes of knowledge production, in a constant defense of what she believed: in the Indian subject, in her territory, in her language and in your culture.
