Língua e estilo na obra lítero-musical de “Mussoumano”: para uma poética do rap

Abstract

This work presents a stylistic study of the written profile of the rapper known as "Mussoumano" and develops a productive look at the phenomena of homonymy and paronymy, since such a grouping is endowed with a fruitful sound interface for expressive purposes. The aim is to analyze the forms of lyrical construction of the composer Mussoumano in his songs, (de)marked by the use of homonymous words and paronyms, aiming at the delimitation of his writing and the emphatic resources of his content. Therefore, based on the theoretical-methodological assumptions of the stylistic analysis of Garcia (2010), Martins (2008), Câmara Jr. (1977) and the grammatical studies of Bechara (2009), Azeredo (2012), Lima (2011), Leitão (2016), Ribeiro (2004) and Caetano (2020), it is intended to systematically conceptualize the boundaries between homonymy and paronymy. In data analysis, we use the artist's letters linked to the concepts of Garcia's word-pull-word (1996), partial signifier and partial meaning of Alonso (1960), in an interdisciplinary relationship of phonic stylistics with some principles of literary theory. The results point out that the poetic construction of the rapper makes use of homonymous and paronymous words, always exploring humor and social criticism. Thus, this research allows the understanding of the written production of the musician and clarifies the productivity of homonymy and paronymy as poetic resources
