Descrição
Resumo:Gender studies, fruit of the feminist movements, have made it possible to study besides feminisms, masculinities, the masculine gender. The masculinities, in the plural form, as a theme of study, have been expanded in various academic fields: sociological, psychological, post-structuralist, and materialist. This occurs because being masculine goes beyond the biological; it is a social construction, therefore, ideological, discursivized. Starting from the argument that there is not a single masculinity and having as theoretical contribution the Pecheutian Discourse Analysis, it is intended, in this work, to analyze the cover of Galileu magazine, November 2018, which deals with the theme ”Does the new man exist?". The cover, as imagetic and symbolic materiality, is a support of discourses that resignify effects of meaning ofcertain subjects and their social relations. That is, it discursivizes about masculinities. To analyze the cover of this magazine, we mobilize the following concepts of theory: discursive memory, interdiscourse and Discursive Formations, to bring to the thread of discourse the effects of meaning about masculinity discursivized in this media materiality.
