THE EMOTION OF INDIGNATION AS A POLITICAL INSTRUMENT IN LULA'S SPEECHES
Abstract
This article analyzed the emotion of indignation as a discursive resource in the Brazilian political context, taking as a corpus four statements by Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the period of October 2022 and January 2023, where they occurred, respectively: the electoral victory in the presidential race and the inauguration of the elected president. The theoretical-methodological contribution is made in Foucauldian Discursive Studies, especially in the studies of emotions proposed by Corbin, Courtine, Vigarello et al. (2020a, 2020b, 2020c). The analyzes revealed that the emotion of indignation appears in Lula’s speeches in three predominant forms: as a political mobilization strategy; as a strategy for political polarization and as a denunciation of the political situation and social inequality.
