This monograph has as general objective to investigate the ways of seeing and
saying the environment in the comic The group of Monica - 50 years from the
discursive analysis of Michel Foucault. The specific objectives are: To study the
tool of the speech in Michel Foucault and to map the ways of seeing and saying
the environment produced/taught by the comic The group of Monica - 50 years.
The collection Turma da Mônica - 50 years presents five almanacs, with five
characters (one for each almanac) that are: Mônica, Cascão, Cebolinha, Magali
and Bidu. We randomly chose Cascão Almanac as empiria. Michel Foucault's
discourse tool is used in theoretical-methodological terms, which enabled us to
map the statements that produce an idea of the environment from the
characteristics of the discourse for this author. In this way, the categories of
analysis are not defined a priori, but in the development of analysis when we use
the tool of Foucault's discourse. Thus, the almanac is seen in this work in the
pedagogical sense of teaching correct ways of seeing and saying the
environment. The chosen statements are: Polluted Environment and Beware of
the planet, be sustainable. The statement Polluted environment produces an idea
of polluted urban environment, which needs intervention, with vulnerable people,
powerless in the face of the situation. The statement Beware of the planet, being
sustainable produces an idea of environment that needs to be thought for future
generations, with a good use of natural resources.
