Abstract

Anchored in the theoretical-analytical contribution of Discourse Analysis (Pêcheux) we aim in this paper an analysis of the statements about women relatively stabilized in the social environment. To this end, the analytic corpus will compose the discursivities about the Greek goddesses that subscribe to the special edition of the comics of Turma da Monica, available online. In different types of society, the code of rules has always been present to direct the conduct considered appropriate to the subjects in their various levels of coexistence. In Greece, stories about gods and mythological beings were circulated within the society not only to explain the natural phenomena that were often incomprehensible at that time but also to regulate the pattern of behavior of their people, in line with the prevailing order. Discursively, we understand that the senses are updated by an intrinsic relationship between actuality and memory. In our gesture of interpretation, we seek a better understanding of how the senses about (and for) women stabilize in the discursive process, and their implications for the regularization of memory about (and for) women today.
