Encapsulating anaphore in journalistic reports

consequences of pandemic in the scenario of returning to face-to-face classes

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the use of encapsulating anaphores in three reports, selected from national magazines and from the web. The different types of anaphores are presented in the theoretical foundation as reference resources in discourse and textual organization. The theme is inserted in the Textual Linguistics studies, and has as theoretical basis Koch (2004, 2005, 2009), Koch and Marcuschi (1998), Mondada and Dubois (2003), Cavalcante (2003) and Apothelóz (2003). As a methodological procedure, a bibliographical research with a qualitative approach was applied. The selection of the encapsulating anaphore, represented here by deictic demonstrative pronouns, is characterized as a cohesive and argumentative resource to be investigated. Studies about the text, from the Textual Linguistics perspective, contribute to the teaching of the mother tongue, and, consequently, to teachers and also to those who are interested in the processes of construction of the discursive textual tessitura.
