DELTA. documentação de estudos em linguística teórica e aplicada, São Paulo. v. 23, n. 1, p. 1-26, 2007.e-1678-460Xhttp://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/18703Based upon Derrida's (1990) and Butler's (1997; 1998; 1999) interpretations of Austin's (1976) speech acts studies, this article examines theoretical connections with performativity, body and identities. A radical performative view of language submit the body to examination as a basic principle of identity practices analysis. Repeated speech acts within an unyielding normative frame constitute identities - ritual acts of a body that speech. Specially gender identities are important examples to understanding the linguistic aspects of body regulations.porAcesso AbertoPerformatividadeCorpoIdentidadeGêneroPerformativityBodyIdentityGenderArtigo10.1590/S0102-44502007000100001
