SUMMARY:

This dissertation presents a study on how humorous discourse has been explored in the process of teaching Portuguese as a foreign language in a textbook. As is known, the textbook is one of the tools used by teachers in the teaching process, being an important didactic-pedagogical material, since, in most contexts, it is responsible for guiding the teacher's work, in addition to being a considerable source of information and access to culture. In addition, it bears several textual genres used in everyday life. The present research focuses specifically on the humorous genre, which proves to be effective in the learning process, because, in addition to providing fun, as advocated by some studies, it is constituted from a great semantic and linguistic load, together with ideologies and cultural aspects. From the humorous discourse, it is possible to understand the culture of a people and the customs of a society, make criticisms and, at the same time, bring reflections, so it is a rich source of learning for people who seek to learn Portuguese as non-mother tongue. About the Textbook we resort to the voices of scholars who reflect on the importance of the Textbook especially on the Textbook of Portuguese as a Foreign Language highlighting Silva (2016) and Rojo (2005) who deal with its role in the learning context and outside it , such as its cultural, pedagogical, educational and public importance, with textbooks being relevant not only in the teaching context, but for society.
When researching humor, authors such as Bakhtin (1997), Charaudeau (2002), Maingueneau (2002) , Possenti (2001) and Orlandi (1996) enrich our study with their contributions on Discourse analysis, especially the analysis of Humorous Discourse , based on their conceptions of humor and the aspects that lead a discourse to be humorous, such as historical and social elements, ideological constructions and production conditions that influence the production of meaning. In this way, we realize that there are excellent works that develop very well both the analysis of humor from the linguistic point of view, and the analysis of the Textbook as a pedagogical support, works that served as a theoretical reference for the study that was developed in the following chapters.
Thus, through this research, it was possible to infer that DH contributes positively to the learning of those who need to learn Portuguese as a foreign language, and considering that LD is one of the most used tools in the teaching process, and therefore as a support pedagogically, we analyzed the DH from the textbook, especially the LDPLE, defending the idea that humor positively contributes to the teaching and learning process of people who seek to learn Portuguese as a foreign language, taking into account their needs, which range from from learning the lexicon of the language, to cultural issues related to the Brazilian community.
