Abstract

This research is dedicated to establishing a universe of alternative practices to the journalistic processes disseminated by the professional culture, here called Journalism of Unhappenings, from the narrative dynamics of Eliane Brum. It focuses, therefore, on investigating her current course as a columnist in the digital environment, in interface with her initial trajectory as reporter in the press, thus evidencing the aspects that are preserved and those that evolve in her news approach and in the configuration of her writings. The research considers her texts to the portal Época, published in te book A menina quebrada e outras colunas de Eliane Brum (2013), her columns to the portal El País Brazil, delimited between 2014 and 2015, and her experience in the coverage of the World Cup of 2014, to the newspaper Folha de São Paulo, and organizes them according to two discursive expedientes: narration-description and argumentation. Through the method of comprehension, analyzes the manifestation of Brum‟s journalistic agenda in each of these ways, in order to associate the theoretical matrix of Unhappenings with the Complex-Comprehensive Epistemology (KÜNSCH) and to integrate new narrative devices into this proposal. Finally, with the articulations, this project hopes to promote alternative reflections to the traditional newsmaking, under proposals that privilege the movement to the Other and the look to the contexts and demands of those marginalized by the public and media interest.
