Discourse and narrative: redimensioned vertexes in journalism
Abstract
Considering the field of media as constituted by a triple component, discourse/narrative/machines, this essay proposes a historical analysis of the Brazilian journalistic discourse as an attempt to understand its process of construction. From this point of view, the triad suggested by Rodrigues (1984) proves to be incomplete. From the perspective of the production of knowledge, discourse and narrative, once they really are vertexes of the triangle, are absences. This article suggests, then, a better understanding of such absences, asking at the same time whether the analyses of discourse and narrative might be, somehow, ways of conceiving these two redimensioned vertexes as constitutive elements of journalism.
