Frases de Michael Halliday

Michael Alexander Kirkwood Halliday foi um linguista britânico e australiano que desenvolveu uma teoria gramatical conhecida como Gramática Sistêmico-Funcional e, consequentemente, a abordagem conhecida como Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional .

Halliday foi aluno do linguista britânico J. R. Firth e, a partir das ideias de Firth, desenvolveu uma nova abordagem de análise gramatical, que chamou de Gramática de Escala e Categorias, sendo esta a base de sua teoria. Originalmente construída sobre a língua inglesa, a GSF de Halliday vem sendo amplamente utilizada e adaptada para diversos idiomas.A proposta teórica da Halliday implicou o questionamento das ideias de dois grandes linguistas, Ferdinand de Saussure e William Labov, já que nenhum destes permitia um estudo acabado do binarismo língua/fala: ou era a opção sistêmica ou a opção funcional . No livro Language as Social Semiotic: The Social Interpretation of Language and Meaning , Halliday discorre sobre este novo modelo para o estudo da linguagem integrando o componente sociocultural como chave em sua compreensão.

Assim, a principal ideia do linguista, que foi ampliada por seus seguidores ao longo dos anos, é estudar a linguagem relacionada com seu funcionamento em sociedade. Desta forma, a linguagem para Halliday é vista como um sistema sociossemiótico, com várias possibilidades de escolha de significados. Na GSF, a forma com a qual construímos nossas experiências e definimos nossa existência resulta na realização por meio da linguagem, que também é potencializada pelo contexto no qual ela ocorre.
