CORTEZ, Gabriel de Lima Alves. The brazilianness notion in the Anglo - Saxon journalism : a discourse analysis of US and English newspapers in the period of FIFA 2014 World Cup. 2017. 201 p .

ABSTRACT This study aims to understand the way that in which four of the main vehicles of Anglo - Saxon journalism portrayed Brazil and the Brazilians during the 2014 Football World Cup. Our interest here is to verify how the B razilianness notions are described by the foreign press – specifically, by media of U nited S tates and England. Both coutnries appear frequently in Brazilians ’ discourses about “ cu lture ” , organization and civilization (in a positivist sense of these terms); more than that, they are two of our more proclaimed sources of otherness by common sense and even by the academy (as shown Renato Ortiz). However , ultimately, what defines Brazil as a "nation" and what differentiates us from other people? In fact, does really exists a “national” character ? And , beyond that, how some of the most important US and English media discourses operate these representations? How the foreign journalistic di scourses contribute to the construction of a "B razilianness"? That is what we will seek to understand with this research. The theoretical foundation, the results and the final considerations is based on concepts of French Discourse Analysis and on Cultural Studies. The c ollection of material was done in reports published before, during and after the World Cup - 2014 in digital versions of The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Times and The Guardian .
