Cultura popular e carnaval: uma análise do enredo da escola de samba “Cova da onça”, sob a perspectiva do percurso gerativo de sentido

Abstract

The present work aims to examine the plot "50 anos...The magic of time", by the Unidos da Cova da Onça Samba School, from the theoretical and methodological apparatus of the generative path of meaning, by the author José Luiz Fiorin ( 2008). The motivation of the research comes from the researcher's familiarity with the subject of analysis, with regard to the Samba School, seeking, at the same time, to articulate conceptual elements related to culture, in its popular manifestations, and to Communication. The research seeks, from the perspective of the generative path of meaning, to offer a theoretical basis for a methodological proposal that identifies, from the expression and content planes, the analysis of the discourse of the plot of the 50 years of Cova da Onça, taken to the avenue in Uruguaiana's out-of-season carnival in 2020. The analysis methodology proposes to seek the reading of the samba-plot by the fundamental, narrative and discursive strata or levels, in addition to the manifestation plan whose purpose is to provide a pictorial or imagery perspective of the carnival on the avenue.
