From text to speech: empowering the process of language understanding

Abstract

In this article it is proposed the investigation of the contributions of discourse analysis for the process of textual comprehension. For that, a concept of textual comprehension process through Bakhtinian dialogism is presented. Then an appreciation of the discourse is carried out through French orientation based on the concept of the philosopher Michel Pêcheux. The proposal of the conjugation of such philosophical, linguistic positions lays on the possibility of using those concepts to find ways to strengthen the process of textual comprehension. In order to apply this principle, it is made available a textual analysis of a didactic book whose role in this article is to signal which way the process of comprehension takes by using this kind of support. From this point on, a set of suggestions follows so as to increase the interpretative perspective of the text based on the above supports.
