Senses of the body: metaphor and interdiscourse

Based on the theory of the body as a material form, this article introduces an analisys of two extracts from Facebook in which the main mark is the inscription on the skin of the subject, by the trace on the flesh. Here I make considerations about the functioning of the metaphor and of interdiscourse, privileging them as a way to give visibility to the theoretical and analytical procedures, while reflecting on the specifics of PÊCHEUX's discourse analysis in studies of verbal-visual textualities. The textualities examined allow one to see the inscriptions of the body as a brand of contradiction and division, signs of belonging capable of producing effects of transparency and multiplicity of meaning, in a kaleidoscopic and polyphonic body.
