Abstract

Recent linguistic research in the scope of Systemic-Functional Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics allowed major advances in understanding textual micro and macrostructure due to the growing concern to qualify quantitative data, especially lexicogrammatical choices and patterns of occurrence in genres. Therefore, the combination of methodological tools provided by the theoretical framework of both theories allows a comprehensive study of the text, since the cross-analysis of data might show significant standards of use of languages in order to recognize and use a given genre. In fact, the recurring disagreement about the definition of discursive genres is largely due to the relative stability of genres (cf. Bakhtin, 1992) that materialize at different linguistic levels. Ideology – assumed as a detectable and noticeable higher contextual dimension – is generally discredited in genres analysis, precisely because of its broad and multilevel characteristic, which makes data manipulation harder for the researcher. Therefore, this article proposes a cross-analysis, there is a theoretical-methodological association between the Systemic-Functional Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics in order to unveil the ideological complexes obtained from the patterns of occurrence of key participants (w-participants) in the discourse and the logogenetical meaning resulted from the representation of the experience (ideational metafunction) in Galician-Portuguese chants of love.
