    Referenciação em narrativas escritas do imaginário lendário da Amazônia: uma análise da construção dos referentes em Dêixis no cordel o “Chapéu do Boto”
    (Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará, 2025-04-26) CASTRO, Cendy; MOURA, Heliud Luis Maia; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3533256621718952; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1765046971652340; MOURA, Heliud Luis Maia; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3533256621718952; NASCIMENTO, Juscelino Francisco do; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7090-2876; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3532936503287691; HALL, Sílvia Cristina Barros de Souza; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4299-2867; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1900825503546910
    This research, conducted within the Graduate Program in Letters at the Federal University of Western Pará, falls within the field of Linguistics and the subfields of Textual Linguistics, while also being linked to the theme of referential and enunciative operations in narratives from the Amazon region of Pará. Based on this, the object of analysis is the phenomenon of deixis in the Amazonian cordel “O Chapéu do Boto” (2007 edition) by the Paraense cordelista Antônio Juraci Siqueira. The central research question guiding this investigation is: How do deictic elements in the cordel O Chapéu do Boto contribute to referentiation and to the enunciative anchoring of the narrator, the reader, space, and time in the narrative? As a justification, the study aims to deepen reflections on Pará’s regional identity by filling gaps regarding deictic operations in Siqueira’s work. Additionally, it analyzes specific linguistic processes in the Amazon, such as enunciative anchoring via deixis, which situates the reader within the narrative universe and revives collective memory. The general objective of this research is to analyze the role of deictic elements in referentiation in the cordel O Chapéu do Boto, investigating how deictic markers contribute to the construction of discourse objects and to the enunciative anchoring that articulates the narrator, the reader, space, and time in the narrative. The specific objectives are: 1. To observe the thematic and structural aspects of the cordel genre in the analyzed narrative; 2. To identify the discourse objects that are established and resumed in O Chapéu do Boto; 3. To specify the types of referents in deixis in the cordel under analysis; 4. To analyze the role of deictic markers in “ostension” and “subjectivity”, such as referentiation, anchoring of the narrator, reader, space, and time, as well as other identified aspects. Regarding methods and techniques, the research follows a qualitative-quantitative and interpretative approach, employing descriptive and bibliographical methods. Data collection involved Systematic Literature Review techniques and Bardin’s (2011) content analysis, focusing on referential operations present in the text “O Chapéu do Boto”. Among the findings, the study reveals that: 1. Regarding the structure of the cordel, its alternation between setilhas and sextilhas, along with rhyming patterns (blank, assonant, and consonant), combined with Waldir Lisboa’s illustrations, reinforces the orality characteristic of the genre. In this context, deictics function as cohesive links ensuring narrative fluency and immersion, allowing the story to shift between reality and fantasy without losing its cultural roots; 2. Concerning enunciative anchoring, it was observed that personal deictics, such as “I ask for attention” and “Grandmother told me”, along with imperative verbs like “Tell a tale” and “Open the gates”, establish a direct dialogue between the narrator and the reader. This strategy not only invites the audience to take on the role of co-author of the narrative but also ensures its perpetuation as an act of cultural resistance, where orality remains alive through the continuous reinscription of the story; 3. Regarding spatial and temporal deictics, adverbs like “there” and “there”, as well as the phrase “on the banks of the Cajary”, situate the plot in a recognizable geographic context, reinforcing the authenticity of Amazonian imagery. These markers not only delimit the physical setting but also bring the reader closer to regional experiences, creating a sense of proximity with the narrative universe; 4. Collective memory emerges as a central axis through the expression “our mythology”, which functions as an identity deixis. This linguistic construction links the narrator and audience to a shared cultural repertoire, in which the figure of the Boto transcends individual myth to embody ethical and social conflicts in the region, such as the relationship between humans and nature, as well as issues of gender and power.

    O protagonismo feminino: memórias e histórias de vida de mulheres ribeirinhas da comunidade de Aramanaí, Belterra-Pará.
    (Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará, 2025-04-24) AGUIAR, Fernanda Lima; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9946-4961; FERNANDES, José Guilherme dos Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7023812449790431; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6847631700959050; FERNANDES, José Guilherme dos Santos; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9946-4961; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7023812449790431; VICTOR Neto, Jose; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4665707468766798; CRUZ, Regina Célia Fernandes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3307472469778577
    The focus of this work is to identify discursive marks that reveal peculiarities of the experience of riverine women of Baixo Tapajós and to verify which are the common points and which are divergent in the corpus analyzed in the light of narratology (Fernandes, 2005, 2013). In order to obtain, in the research field, the analyzed reports, it was necessary to use elements of ethnophotography and ethnography, such as participant observation and the application of semi-open interviews, with the recording of three oral narratives of life stories, in which each interviewee resorted to memory (Benjamin, 1994). The next step was to understand, through analysis based on the oral history method, based on Thompson (1992), the lives of the people interviewed, more specifically, riverside women, whose reports dialogue with the context of production, extratextual elements – social factors –, which caused the revived memory, according to the ideas of Sarlo (2007), during the collection of the report, to provoke emotions, sometimes euphoric, sometimes dysphoric, which revealed historical processes and social values which served as the basis for the construction of riverine female identity. This research sheds light on gender-specific, sociocultural, socioenvironmental, and socioeconomic issues. This study provided an opportunity for dialogue with riverside women, who were able to reminisce about their experiences and reveal how they view the world, the knowledge and wisdom they possess, and how it deserves to transcend geographical barriers through the stories they tell themselves, about themselves, and about the place to which they belong. The research provided insight into important aspects of the interviewees and the Aramanaí community: the construction of individual and collective identity occurred through a family education that shared knowledge and ways of life from generation to generation; the community is self-declared Roman Catholic Christian, devoted to Our Lady of Sorrows, with no other religious denomination having a temple located there; the use of herbs, milks, and oils is common, as is the preparation of teas and "bottled" drinks, in addition to blessings and prayers to prevent and cure illnesses, as well as during pregnancy and childbirth; the relationship with the river and the practices on the banks of the Tapajós remain typical of riverside living.

    Políticas e subjetividades do não humano em julio cortázar
    (Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará, 2025-07-29) SILVA, Hiandro Bastos da; FIGUEIRA, Lauro Roberto do Carmo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7373916305218922; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0845253630192262; FIGUEIRA, Lauro Roberto do Carmo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7373916305218922; LIMA, Rainério dos Santos; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6885-5342; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2149977342426152; TEIXEIRA, Lívia Maria de Freitas; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0400112800837062
    The present study investigates the animal imminence in the literary universe of the renowned Latin American writer Julio Cortázar (1914-1984), based on the reading of the short story Letter to a Young Lady in Paris, in parallel with other texts such as Headache, Distant, Bestiary, and Circe – all published in 1951 in the compilation of short narratives titled "Bestiary." Grounded in the unsettling thoughts of Donna Haraway, Gabriel Giorggi, Giorgio Agamben, John Berger, Vinciane Despret, among other contemporary intellectuals, the aim was to unravel how the feverish presence of animals drags Cortázar's characters into the abyss of the unreal, stripping them of the status of the human, once granted by the "anthropological machine of humanism" (Agamben, 2007, p. 51), according to anthropocentric criteria, considering race, ethnicity, sexuality, language, rationality, and genetic integrity. Having made this recognition, the study sought to verify in Cortázar's text how the characters, placed in adverse contexts, are invaded by a deterritorializing animal contiguity that questions the power technologies over life and reflects on how fluid the boundaries between humans and non-humans are, constantly altered by the state's imaginary, responsible for separating the bodies to protect from those to abandon. Thus, it was possible to observe the emergence of new politics of living and new ethics of dying in the construction of an ontology of the body, undertaken through the animal sign, formatted as an organic, affective, and material continuum of man.

    Desafios na escrita em português como segunda língua: um estudo com discentes Wai Wai
    (Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará, 2025-08-22) SILVA, Cassia Beatriz Feleol; FERREIRA, Ediene Pena; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5534688833865842; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7725172341091779; FERREIRA, Ediene Pena; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5534688833865842; CÂNCIO, Raimundo Nonato de Pádua; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4791-0269; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3719416176703621; HALL, Sílvia Cristina Barros de Souza; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4299-2867; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1900825503546910
    Among the many demands of the university environment, academic writing is perhaps the most challenging one, even for those whose mother tongue is Portuguese. This study seeks to understand the degree of complexity that this requirement poses for indigenous students of the Wai Wai ethnic group, whose first language is not Portuguese. The main objective is to describe the primary syntactic difficulties these students face in their written production in Portuguese, as well as to identify the causes of such challenges. The research is grounded in Applied Linguistics (AL), with emphasis on the Error Analysis framework proposed by Corder (1967), in order to investigate the students’ interlanguage. A total of thirty-nine essays written by Wai Wai students from the Federal University of Western Pará (Ufopa), located in northern Brazil, were analyzed. The results revealed that, among the observed difficulties, syntactic issues were particularly prominent, such as the omission of articles, prepositions, and infinitive verb forms, in addition to distinctive uses of verb conjugations and grammatical gender. The analysis showed that these difficulties stemmed from four types of errors: interlingual, intralingual, ambiguous, and induced. This research contributes to raising awareness of the barriers faced by indigenous students in higher education and to fostering reflection on language policies aimed at teaching Portuguese as a second language.

    Escolarização no município de Almeirim/PA: o sistema municipal de ensino como expressão das lutas pela democratização de oportunidades educacionais
    (Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará, 2024-12-12) PAIXÃO, Raimunda do Socorro Fonseca da; RODRIGUES, Gilberto César Lopes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4795758824360303; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9066686442683446; RODRIGUES, Gilberto César Lopes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4795758824360303; MEDEIROS NETA, Olivia Morais de; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4217-2914; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7542482401254815; COLARES, Anselmo Alencar; http://orcid.org/0000-0002-1767-5640; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1107767923215438
    The present work examines the construction of the Municipal Education System in the municipality of Almeirim/PA in the light of history, highlighting the role of social participation in this construction. The objective is to present in a broad sense, the historical developments of schooling in this municipality that influenced the creation of the System, in order to understand the role of social struggles for the democratization of educational opportunities in the municipality. Although we present the history of education in the municipality since the colonial period, our focus focuses on the period of democratic opening that culminated in the promulgation of the current Federal Constitution of 1988, a period in which there was effectively active participation of social movements in the construction of the municipality's school apparatus. The research involved bibliographic, documentary and field study through the collection of information in documents, iconographic sources, federal, state and municipal legislation and public and private archives. After collecting data and analyzing them in the light of the theoretical framework, it can be stated that the creation of the Municipal Education System of this municipality is intrinsically related to the extensive process of struggle of the population for the democratization of education for the minority population. In view of the implementation of an emancipatory educational policy, where organized society began to have a voice and a turn, as opposed to the history in which the elites who succeeded each other in local power determined the end of education to the needs of their enterprises, economic and religious development, it is concluded that the creation of the SME occurred from the desires of the local society in the search for decentralization and participation in educational decisions, where it assumes an important role in the debates around educational quality in the local Amazonian context.
