Edição filológica e estudo lexical de um processo crime de roubo e estupro do início do século xx

Abstract

Abstract: Written records represent human thought and language, and from them it is possible to unravel the way of life of a society in a given period. Therefore, documentary collections are an invaluable source of philological-linguistic research. In this sense, we selected as corpus of this dissertation the crime of robbery followed by rape of Maria Francisca de Jesus and Maria dos Santos. It is a manuscript document with 56 folios, mostly written in the straight and verse, drafted in 1914, which is under the guardian of the Documentation and Research Center (CEDOC), located at the State University of Feira de Santana-BA. Thus, we undertake two main objectives: the first one, referring to the philological character, is about the fac-similar and semidiplomatic editions of the corpus, highlighting some paleographic and codicological aspects of the document. The second main objective, from the semidiplomatic edition, the lexical study based on Eugênio Coseriu's Methodology of Lexical Fields (1977), evidencing the vocabulary of crime contained in the corpus, from which fifty-one lexias were selected. We highlight the use of the AntConc computational tool (ANTHONY, 2016) for the investigation of lexias referring to the field of crime, as well as contexts of occurrences. As a theoretical basis, in the philological area, we use authors such as Spina (1977 and 1994), Cambraia (2005), Spaggiari and Perugi (2004), among other references; in the lexicological area, in turn, we had as theoretical foundation Eugenio Coseriu ([1977] 1991 and 1987), Abbade (2006 and 2011), Mario Vilela (1994), Biderman (1981 and 1998), among others. We emphasize that we also discuss some socio-historical aspects related to violence in the city of Feira de Santana, according to the period that places the corpus. Concerning to the violence in the city of Feira de Santana, we use as references Poppino (1968), Oliveira (2000) and some newspaper clippings from Folha do Norte (1909-1913). Therefore, in making the facultative and semidiplomatic editions of the crime of robbery and rape, from the beginning of the twentieth century, we contributed to the non-deterioration of the document, facilitating the reading of it by future researchers from different areas. This study stamped through its lexical estate, daily historical, social, political and cultural configurations of local communities of the city of Feira de Santana-BA
