Abstract

Considering that laugh can split tension and break taboos, this paper has the aim to bring up a reading of sexuality from a humorous text, analyzed under the French semiotics theory. It will analyze how sexuality is brought to the text by the reader and, from this start, how laugh is built. As the object of analysis, it takes the chronicle “Sissica”, by Luís Fernando Veríssimo. Keywords: Semiotics. Laugh. Reading. Sexuality.
