Ensino de língua portuguesa à luz da teoria das operações predicativas e enunciativas: descrição e reflexão

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the contributions of the Theory of Predicative and Enunciative Operations - TOPE, developed by Antoine Culioli (1990, 1999a, 1999b, 2018), to the teaching of grammar and Portuguese language. The study is grounded in the conception of language as an activity of construction and regulation of values, in which meanings result from cognitive and linguistic operations performed by subjects in situation. From a methodological perspective, this is a qualitative study of a bibliographical and analytical-interpretative nature, whose corpus consists of four scientific articles selected according to criteria of theoretical and methodological relevance. Each article is examined in a specific section, allowing for the description of the operations mobilized in different teaching proposals and for the establishment of relations among distinct analytical frameworks. The results indicate the possibility of moving away from normative and dichotomous approaches toward practices that take into account the functioning of language in use, particularly with regard to the articulation between reading activities, interpretation, and grammatical reflection. It is concluded that TOPE provides consistent theoretical foundations for the development of teaching proposals that consider grammar as an analytical tool for examining enunciative operations and the construction of values in language activity
