Descrição
Resumo:This study focused on analyzing interactions around faith and death on social media, specifically on Instagram. Mikhail Bakhtin's theory of dialogical discourse analysis was used as a conceptual framework to examine interactions in the virtual environment of social media and understand the importance of language and discourse in the construction of meaning and human interaction. Through a literature review based on the works of Bakhtin (2004, 2017) and Philippe Ariès (1989), data were collected from various sources such as religious texts, specialized literature, and online debates, in order to explore the discourse related to faith and death. The main objective of this study was to initiate a conversation about discourses concerning death and religion in modern society, drawing analogies between these discourses and the myth present in Norse mythology, specifically regarding the treatment of the elderly and senicide. Additionally, questions were raised about the use of social media to exercise the right to freedom of expression and promote critical awareness around topics such as elderly suicide and depression. This study was relevant due to the need to understand how these themes are addressed and debated in the online environment and how they affect society as a whole, thus allowing us to comprehend how our beliefs, values, and social context influence our perception and reflection on faith and death.
