Dissertação (Mestrado em Processos e Sistemas Visuais, Educação e Visualidade) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2008.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tde/2768This work investigates the presence of fictional elements in the Jornal Nacional (Rede Globo), from the covering of news related to science and technology. We investigate the reports on the subject circulated in the period of August to December 2006. To undertake the analysis of this material, collected by recording the news reports , a corpus of three reports of scientific content was selected. . The focus of analysis is the media discourse, built from the relationship between image and text. In that sense, I take as theoretical reference Charaudeau s analysis of media discourse (2006). The author s ideas about scenic devices of media information help us to put the news in connection with the film and understand its operations and discursive strategies used in their configuration. The study revealed that the report draws on various types of screenplays, using the designative, figurative and visualities resources of the image to fit the conditions of credibility and seduction of the purpose of information. This led us to conclude that the mediation between scientist and public, between academia and non-scientific community, observed on the news reports studied is characterized by the spectacularization of science, generated from the effects of drama and the simplistic approaches. . While the researchers travelled a long way to reach results, the reports explore just the practical and objective application of scientific discoveries.application/pdfAcesso AbertoJornal Nacionalciênciaanálise do discursoJornal Nacionalsciencediscourse analysisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANASDissertação
