DISCURSIVE PERSPECTIVE IN TEACHER TRAINING:

ENUNCIATIVE RESONANCES OF A TRADITIONAL LANGUAGE APPROACH

Abstract

This paper reflects on the discursive perspective within the scope of teacher training. To this end, it presents a discursive analysis of fragments of written productions by Licentiate Brazilian students in Language Portuguese/Spanish, resulting from an essay proposal in the context of language teaching/learning. Starting from theoretical-methodological postulates of Discourse Analysis with a Pecheutian orientation (cf. Orlandi, 2000), it aims, in dialogue with the (inter)discursive dimension, to examine, according to Foucault (2014 [1969] and Serrani (1997), which discursive formations the subjects’ written productions reflect, thus leading their writing gestures to certain meaning effects. Considering Pecheutian theory, the results point to subjective inscriptions in discursivities that refer to a traditional approach in the context of language teaching/learning with a strong emphasis on the segregation between the linguistic and the discursive.
