Abstract

This research aims to analyze the recategorization of the quarantine as a discourse object on the newspaper page Diário de Pernambuco on the social network twitter. Therefore, the work is anchored in the theoretical-methodological assumptions of Textual Linguistics, in Cavalcante et al. (2014; 2019; 2020) and Mondada and Dubois (2003), among others. From March to July 2020, we analyzed the tweets published on the Diário de Pernambuco page, focusing on the object of discourse quarantine. We observe, in the interactions between user-page, as well as user-user, intense processes of recategorization, in which the characteristic instability of the referent is demonstrated. It is possible to notice a range of posts with aggressive content that aim to impose certain categorizations that are not restricted to the verbal field, also exploring multiple semiosis.
