RESUMO

Taking into account that the act of narrating presents a necessary meta-discoursive reflexion about what is being narrated and that narrative presents a patterning or a "schematism" responsible for maintaining the narrative paradigm order, this study describes how narrators from Brazilian Amazon region configurate narrative tradition in two different ways. The first way called "folk-tale" is characterized considering the fact that narrators, when telling their stories, choose (i) to present fixed plots, which are common shared, (ii) to construct a high degree of distance from what is being narrated, (iii) to necessarily present narrative structured in terms of "conflict resolution"and (iv)to inscribe narrative sequences in a wondering discoursive domain. Narrators choose to configurate oral tradition in a way called "oral story" when they (i) do not present a fixed plot, reconstructing oral traditional narratives in a personal way (ii) express their evaluations about what is been narrated, (iii) structure narrative not necessarily in terms of "conflict resolution", but in a way that "resolution" category is not obrigatory, (iv) present the characters through a subjective perspective, showing their internal processes (feelings, thoughts etc.) and (v) inscribe the narrative sequences in other fictional domains. The narratives analysed in this thesis were collected by a group of researchers from Universidade Federal do Pará and were published in three volumes. The analysis of thirty narratives allows us to conclude that narrators can linguistically configurate narrative tradition in two ways: the first one, characterized by the fact that narrators privilege when telling their stories the dimensions of repetition and stability; the second one, characterized by the fact that narrators privilege when telling their stories the dimensions of difference and instability
