Perspectiva linguístico-discursiva na terapêutica da gagueira

Abstract

Endorsed in the theoretical estimates by the Analysis of the The French Discourse Analysis, that defines the person as social and marked ideologically, we analyze the therapeutical process of stuttering subjects from the perspective of that discourse linguistics conception. Under this view, we discuss Speech Therapeutic works that take stuttering as a manifestation of the body, involving muscular tension, breath, production of speech, genetics, in sum, an “illness”. We review Speech Therapeutic quarrels about stuttering, and launch a new view, from the discourse linguistics perspective, with therapeutically possibilities for these stuttering subjects. We analyze the speech clippings from the speech analysis of two stuttering subjects in process of Speech Therapeutic attendance, in a longitudinal form. We assume, thus, stuttering as a language matter, directly related to the production conditions, with therapeutically possibilities under the same perspective.
