This Dissertation discusses the way adopted by Miriense printed newspaper (JM) to present its subject-reader the woman who has public and political action in Igarapé-Miri City, either with regard to the analysis of a more focused media coverage for the proper political personality, either with regard to the examination of an enunciation that turns to the dissemination of more specific political actions such as the performance of women in social movements and in the Igarapé-Miri City Hall. We investigate the discursive functioning of the journalistic practice materialized in JM. Such a vehicle is produced in the Igarapé-Miri city (PA) for 35 years. More specifically, we focus on a set of disseminated publications between 2004 and 2008. They were divided in four groups of texts, defined as G1, G2, G3 and G4, which present the feminine role in various public / political functions (G1 and G2) and the specific role of mayor of Igarapé-Miri (G3 and G4). In these publications, we try to pay attention to the joints between the journalistic practice and public/ political life in Igarapé- Miri and between discourses about women's social position and the gender dimension that can impact the way to say, journalistically, about female appearance at JM. How these joints generate meanings in the analyzed publications is a question that specifically defines the main horizon defined for this study: to investigate the interdiscursive relationships constituents of JM, materialized in the texts that thematize the female public/political action in Igarapé-Miri. This research is based on postulates of the French Discourse Analysis (AD), specifically along the lines advocated by Dominique Maingueneau (1997, 2008, 2011), taking into account the adoption of the following theoretical and analytical tools: interdiscourse, discursive practice, enunciation scene and discursive deixis. We believe that journalistic enunciation of JM exposes interdiscursive relations called in the texts to refer to the thematized political figure established by a set of enunciative scenes, which are supported by elements of the adopted discursive deixis. In this interface, the overlap between media and speech is of vital importance, which is why the research is founded on postulates of authors like Gregolin (2007), Lage (2005), Melo (1994) and Miguel (2002, 2003a). It was possible to find a set of interdiscursive relations pointing to links between the journalistic discourse of JM with the ongoing religious practice in Igarapé-Miri and between this journalistic practice and political practice that helps form the town public life, as well as between journalistic discursive practice and the gender dimension, which significantly impacts the discursive function and senses run on JM on women with public and political action in Igarapé-Miri city.
