description | In this paper, based on the regimes of meaning and interaction from sociosemiotics theory (LANDOWSKI, 2014), we aim to understand how the totalitarian regime of Gilead, a fictional nation in the dystopian series The Handmaid’s Tale, is constituted, taking as object of analysis the first episode, entitled Offred. From the articulation between the theoretical foundations – totalitarianism (ARENDT, 2012; NEUMANN, 1969; TURPIN, 2012) and sociosemiotics – and the reflections resulting from the analysis, we verified that both the manipulation and programming regimes legitimize the conservation of the totalitarian state. |

Neste trabalho, com base nos regimes de interação e sentido da teoria sociossemiótica (LANDOWSKI, 2014), temos como objetivo compreender como se constitui o regime totalitário de Gilead, nação fictícia da série distópica The Handmaid’s Tale, com base na análise do primeiro episódio, intitulado Offred. A partir da articulação entre os fundamentos teóricos – totalitarismo (ARENDT, 2012; NEUMANN, 1969; TURPIN, 2012) e sociossemiótica – e das reflexões resultadas da análise, verificamos que tanto o regime da manipulação quanto o da programação legitimam a conservação do Estado totalitário. 2020-09-17 2022-03-18T19:28:06Z 2022-03-18T19:28:06Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/cadernos/article/view/14195 10.47284/2359-2419.2020.28.225244 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/65522 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/cadernos/article/view/14195/9662 Copyright (c) 2020 CC-BY application/pdf Faculdade de Ciências e Letras - Unesp - Araraquara.
