Narratividade e discursividade: pontos de, referência e problemáticas

Abstract

This text is a quick glance at French Semiotics global model, known as the "generative trajectory". Following A. J. Greimas's steps, the author explains the distribution oflayers of different abstraction leveis, which simulate the meaning generation from the abstract towards the concrete, from the constant towards the variable. Revisiting the basic principies of Paris School Semiotics, the author presents the deep and the superficial narrative structures, focusing on modalities theory; he also studies both syntactic and semantic organization of the discursive structures. Inquiring into the semiotic approach of enunciation, the text brings up some questions about the general outline of the Greimassian model and points out possible evolutions in the near future.
