O estabelecimento de relações de discurso como manobra discursiva no processo de gestão de faces e territórios em uma entrevista jornalística

Abstract

Throughout interactions, the interlocutors use different discursive maneuvers to achieve their communicative goals. One of these maneuvers is the establishment of discourse rela-tions to articulate textual constituents in order to manage faces and territories. From this perspec-tive, our article investigates how interactive discourse relations (argument, counter-argument, re-formulation, preliminary, and so on.) are used on the facework of a written interview, published in 2019 in the interview section of the 2nd edition of Folha de S. Paulo, whose participants were: Anna Virginia Balloussier (AVB), a journalist of Folha, and Marcello Crivella (MC), who, at the time, was mayor of Rio de Janeiro. Our hypothesis is that these discourse relations play an important role in the facework, thus acting as interactional resources through which the interview participants try to achieve their communicative goals and negotiate identity images. To carry out this analysis, we used as our theoretical-methodological framework the Geneva Modular Approach to Discourse Analy-sis, which is a cognitive-interactionist approach that aims to account for discursive complexity by breaking it down into smaller units
