AFFECTIVE ABANDONMENT: A DISCURSIVE LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE TJRS APPEAL
Abstract
In this work, we approach the interdiscursive (how the speech relates to another speech) relationship between two areas of knowledge, Law and Language. The focus of this relationship is more specifically in the area of concentration of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), due to its transdisciplinary. Thus, we intend to identify and analyze the ways in which the relationship between Language and Law materializes in the social practice of emotional abandonment and how this social practice is faced by judges through the applicability of laws. The theoretical-methodological framework focuses specifically on Fairclough’s CDA (2003) - representational meaning - and Halliday’s Functional Systemic Linguistics (2004) - transitivity system. The
construction of the corpus originated from an appeal of the Court of Justice of Rio Grande do Sul on the indemnity for moral damage resulting from emotional abandonment. Thus, in light of the CDA, we seek to interpret and reflect on the lexical choices used in the judgment.
