RESUMO

This work is inserted in the research area of Enunciation and Genre and its purpose is to analyze two aspects: the sense of signs based on the Bakhtins enunciative theory and the relations of genre perceived in romantic pop songs, with focus on the representation of feminine identity. Besides the lyrics, the corpus of the research is constituted by enunciations of students from two schools. The methodology consists of analysis of the theme and the signification of words selected from the songs, which was made with the support of dictionaries on Portuguese language added by the students written enunciation. Throughout the research, it was possible to notice that it is not possible to attribute, to the signs, only meanings that are present in dictionaries, given that the dialogic relation between subjects, formulated by Bakhtin, reveals senses that only can be perceived when the subject puts the language in action. It was also possible to verify that, although the socio-cultural theories of genre have contributed to the decrease of prejudice in relation to women, linguistically, there are still sexist differentiations.
