Abstract
This article aims to analyze, based on the History of Linguistic Ideas, from a materialist perspective, articulated with the theoretical-analytical devices of the discourse analysis proposed by Michel Pecheux and Eni Orlandi, the process of institutionalization of the Letras-Libras undergraduate course in Brazil, thinking about how knowledge production has been developed and historically determined by material conditions that involve the political, the ideological and the symbolical concepts, in this institutionalized space. In addition to that, this article seeks to understand the place that has been designated to deaf people, in Science realm, amid affirmative policies that instrumentalize the proper relations of a social access division to the university. Based on our analysis, we could understand that, besides taking Letras-Libras course as the space for knowledge production concerning sign language, we need to think of it in its discursiveness, understanding how its materialization produces and stabilizes meaning.
