RESUMO:

In this research we investigate, Point of View (POV) and Commitment in essays written by Public High School students who participated in the Federal Senate Essay Contest, which is an activity of the Youth Senators Program. We analyzed texts corresponding to the 2016, 2017 and 2018 editions of the event, with the objective of: 1) identifying enunciative sources and POV mobilized by the students in forming their arguments; 2) describing and analyzing linguistic marks and/or mechanisms used by students with regard to the (non)assumption of the EC in their argumentation; 3) interpreting how the phenomenon of the EC collaborates in the construction of the POV by the students in their argument. To achieve these objectives, we relied on theories from Textual Linguistics, particularly Textual Discourse Analysis (ADAM, 2011) and Enunciative Linguistics, to address the concepts concerning POV and EC discussed by Rabatel (2003, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2016a, 2016b, 2017), Guentchéva (1994, 2011, 2014), Rodrigues (2016, 2017), among others. We also rely on Cabral (2010, 2017), Pinto (2010), Adam (1997, 2019) and Koch (2008), among other theorists of Argumentation, both from a Linguistic and Textual perspective. This investigation is characterized as qualitative, relying on some parameters of quantitative research, developed through a bibliographic and documental approach, and the inductive method. The methodology is based on Bogdan and Bilken (1994), Bauer and Gaskell (2002), Goldenberg (2004), Gil (2010a, 2010b) and Oliveira (2010). From the analysis of the corpus, we conclude that: a) the students textually expressed various enunciative sources, repeatedly using what we denominate as physical sources, which correspond to arguments of authority; b) as for the linguistic marks that indicate the (non)assumption of commitment, we verify that the students introduced enunciations from the enunciative sources through reporting verbs, through other verbs related to the speech act, through nominal forms of verbs, and through conforming conjunctive locutions; c) regarding the negotiation of voices, we found that the students relied on the introduction of the other’s discourse in developing their essays, to reinforce/validate/sustain/construct POV in the argumentation, using the following moves: i) agreement – when they bring the POV of others in alignment with their own; ii) partial agreement – when they mobilize the POV of others, however, adding convenient information; and iii) disagreement – when they refute the POV of secondary speakers to construct their own POV. From the analysis of this data, we conclude that the accusations of the enunciations to the secondary speakers by the primary speaker corresponds to a complex interactional process, recognizing that this speaker, even when distancing him or herself from the POVs attributed to the other, supports him or herself on these to take a particular stand; s/he argumentatively directs the enunciations in this way, as well as the argumentation.
