THE ENUNCIATEE ON THE DIGITAL POETRY

Abstract

The changes produced by the new practices of intersubjective relationships on the Internet, involving the poetic texts published on the web, deserve the discourse researchers’ attention. In this paper, we will analyze, from the theoretical framework of French Semiotics, the participation status of the digital poetry enunciatee in Portuguese language, by observing the presence modes and reading practices apprehensible on the enunciate. Mainly, we will take into account the poems available on the digital environment that make use of syncretic resources, more specifically, animation. We considered the ones published in several poetry sites and official poets’ webpages (as Erratic, Zunái, Cronopios, etc., and the Arnaldo Antunes’s and Augusto de Campos’s websites, among others), to understand how the cyber-reader profile is built. We have identified, in terms of modes of reading and enunciatee participation, a typology that organizes in general, the manner these readers are constituted, in relation to the cognitive and pragmatic ability, presumed to reading, and how the reader reacts to the enunciator’s call to participate and to try the aesthetic and the ludic aspects of the expressive resources. Finally, it is also necessary to understand how these reading practices get closer or further away from those practices, which are already part of the printed texts.
