| Sumario: | In this thesis, it is aim to estabilish, from the theoretical and methodological assumptions of Bakhtin (2002; 2010; 2011; 2015; 2016; 2017; 2018), Volóchinov (2017) and Medviédev (2012), a discursive analysis of the identity construction process of the main character Lacie Pound as of Nosedive, an episode of Netflix’s british series Black Mirror, aiming to understand how the interactions that Lacie develops with the other characters go through her identity (Hall, 2015), and how the protagonist’s journey reflects and refracts today’s society issues. In this regard, it is intended to analyze how the Black Mirror series and, especially, how the Nosedive episode, points to thematic issues related to an hypermodern (Lipovetsky, 2020) and digital (Han, 2019) society. Furthermore, within the sphere of narrative's social extremism, it is intended to analyze how hybrid genre occurs through the combination of the science fiction (Suvin, 1979; Brunner, 1971) and dystopia (Moylan, 2016) discursive genres. In conclusion, this research also aims to analyze how the construction of the grotesque body occurs through Lacie’s body, evidencing the social practices that exclude those who escape the pattern of body archetype widespread in hypermodernity. Within Applied Linguistics, especially in its interdisciplinary character (Moita Lopes, 2006), with the intent of approaching concrete social practices, this study adopts the evidential method (Ginzburg, 1989), the dialogic comparison (Geraldi, 2012; Miotello, 2017) and the verbal-visual perspective (Paula, 2017), assuming, therefore, a dialogical orientation. Therefore, we listed 19 scenes from Nosedive, which will be our analysis framework, presented through figures and dialogues taken from the episode. Therefore, 19 scenes from Nosedive were listed, which will be our framework analysis, presented through figures and dialogues taken from the episode. As research results, we realized that the gender hybridism between dystopia and science fiction formulates the narrative of Black Mirror and the episode under analysis, as well as allowing the viewer to reflect on a hypermodern and hyperconnected chronotope. Finally, we identified, in our analysis, that Lacie's process of identity construction is marked by the conflicting relationship of alterity that the character maintains with the subjects that integrate her life, insofar as her fascination and her expectations regarding the existing ranking in society are corrupted. In this sense, the protagonist's identity is fluid and unfinished, given that her journey allows for continuous transformations. |
