Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the implementation of communicative practices undertaken by Raul Lampião Crato. A figure willing to attribute Raul Seixas - hair, beard, physique - adorned with hat, cartridge belts and leather sandals, inspired by the bandit Lampião. The character performs advertising service advertising wheel in the commercial center of Crato, a town in the interior of Ceará. It is on public display that Raul Lampião presents its communicative practices, coordinating negotiations in which stand elements and features of an economic nature sometimes, elements and features of a social nature in another hand (Bakhtin, 1987; Bitti Zani, 1997; Thompson, 1998). In this context, we use the critical analysis of the narrative (Motta, 2013) as a methodology to understand the character, his speeches and his artistic expressions (Martin-Barbero, 2003; Carreira, 2005). At the end of this work, it is concluded that due to the complexity of performing actions (Hymes, 1975; Glusberg, 1987; Zumthor, 1993, 1997, 2003) undertaken by Raul Lampião the critical relationship established with reality is guided by its commercial activity, and vice versa, as a two-way flow that sustains and feeds on the varied and dissonant circumstances of everyday life.
