<p>The aim of this paper is to look into ways in which modes are chosen if signs are produced for interpretation and presentation of theories and meanings. Magazine is a complex collection of signs that can be extensively decoded and analyzed by different factors. The most spectacular components are documentary photos, manipulated images and portrait photos. According to the results, many processes (action, symbolic, reaction, and analytical processes), and strategies (e.g. top vs. bottom strategies and margin vs. center), modality modification and color differentiation, are required in representing and interpreting concepts and meanings in this type of discourse. The discourse analysis used here is accomplished based on Halliday’s model of functional-systematic grammar (1976, 2004), which uses three meta functions to describe different communicational modes.</p>

Este trabalho objetiva analisar a inter-relação entre elementos verbais e não verbais na construção de sentidos do enunciado capa de revista, evidenciando aspectos sócio-político-ideológicos que instauram o conteúdo do discurso e que se materializam em palavras, cores, imagens, gestos, traços. Para isso, analisa-se o enunciado da capa da revista Veja de 27 de novembro de 2013, que discorre sobre a prisão dos condenados no processo do Mensalão. Mobilizam-se, para essa investigação, os pressupostos teórico-metodológicos do Círculo de Bakhtin e os estudos realizados no âmbito da Análise/Teoria Dialógica do Discurso. A análise mostra que os sentidos do enunciado capa de revista são construídos a partir da relação de interdependência e de complementaridade entre a linguagem verbal e não verbal. O enunciado capa de revista é palco do encontro entre vozes em que o estilo, a construção composicional, o conteúdo semântico-objetal desse enunciado é construído a partir do encontro entre discursos. Abstract: This work aims to analyze the interrelationship between verbal and non-verbal elements at magazine covers, evidencing socio-political-ideological aspects that stablish the speech content that materialize in words, colors, images, gestures, traces. For this, we analyze the utterance from Veja, magazine cover from November 27, 2013, which discusses the imprisonment of convicted in the Mensalão process. We mobilize to this research the theoretical and methodological assumptions from Bakhtin Circle and studies under Analysis/Dialogic Theory of Speech. The analysis shows that the meanings of the utterance are constructed from the relationship of interdependence and complementarity between the verbal and nonverbal. Thus, Magazine cover utterance is like a stage in which, voices, style, compositional structure and objectal-semantic content is built from the meeting between speeches.

The article focuses on the hairstyle related sign and meaning found on the cover of Allure Magazine. Data are collected from 8 magazine covers issued from January 2012 to February 2013. The theory of Linguistics signs and Non-linguistics sign proposed by Ferdinand de Saussure together with the theory of order of signification by Roland Barthes are employed in analyzing the data. The analysis showed that the sentences related to hairstyle are used to persuade the female reader to pay more attention to their hair care, the appliances and hair care products used in order to have an appearance like the models on the cover.
