“Sem sequer dizer adeus”

linguistic analysis of the venting of the subjects restrained at the time of the funeral farewell

Abstract

The main purpose of this investigation was to find out how the restraint of expressive exteriorization can affect the subject, having the communicative manifestation, in certain events, as an essential part of cultural and emotional behavior. Taking as an object of analysis the outburst of entities that had their farewell pronouncement vetoed, due to the epidemic outbreak caused by COVID-19, in 2020, language was investigated, as a social practice, and its form of interpersonal interaction of high affective service and historically constructed. As the sanitary measures have imposed an atypical behavior in relation to the treatment of the patients and the burial of the deceased by the disease in question, the locational expression, as a social construction, being restrained, has emotionally affected the family members. As the expressive impediment is a harmful aggravating factor of the individual’s (re) thinking, as his domain spreads socially and reinforces his state in the world, this research was guided by theorists of sociology, language and psychology, to promote an analysis of communicative knowledge as a necessary component.
