(...): o silêncio na linguagem dos quadrinhos

Abstract

Silence is a relatively unexplored field of language. Often imagined in the field of sound, silence is present in any language product, like music, cinema, literature, theater or comics. Based on sources from areas like Communication, Linguistics, Psychology and Art, this study wants to explore the various forms of silence in the comics, including the form of silence as occultation. The main concepts presented in this study come from the work of researcher and professor Eni Orlandi Puccinelli. The following pages deal with the specificities of the founding silence and the politic of silence, which is divided into constitutive silence and local silence.
