SPEECH OTHER IN FICTIONAL AND NON-FICTIONAL NARRATIVES

Narratives are discursive practices whose nature are inclined to the expression of voices plurality. Traditionally, RDO studies have been devoted to the analysis of the literary prose, by observing the role of the discourse of the Other in the relationship between the author, the narrator and the character. This article aims at describing and comparing the forms and characterization of RDO in non-fictional and fictional genres in regard to narrative wording, based on the studies of Volochinov ([1929]2007) and Authier-Revuz ([1982]2004, 1995, 1998, 2004, 2012, [2009]2015): seven teaching practice reports and five chronicles written by students. The corpus is composed by the prizewinning texts from the Programa Olimpiada de Lingua Portuguesa Escrevendo o Futuro 2014 (Portuguese Language Olympics Writing the Future 2014 Program) in the category of chronicles and analyzed under the qualitative-interpretative methodological perspective. The results indicate that the most diversified use of the RDO forms is not linked to the literary quality of the narrative, but to the major discursive autonomy of the writing subject.
