RESUMO

The real meaning of the Brazilian original country musics lyrics leads us to a culture full of traditions, habits and social values, the rural culture that comes from a mix of Indian, European and African cultures. By the lyrics discourse, we get to know also the ideology and the ethos of the country man, representing a social group that contributes to the nations progress. This ethos is somewhat predictable, because of the memory and the stereotype our society has, regarding that country man. After these considerations, our intention with this work is to examine how the ethos, showed in those six lyrics we chose, reveals identifying and cultural aspects of the Brazilian men. According to Maingueneau (1997), the ethos is inseparable from the enunciative scene where the performance occurs. So we could conclude, in our sampling, the relation between them, because the scene is built so that it reveals the character of the performer, who has a life style similar to the author of the lyrics lifestyle. The generic and ideologic coercion within these discourses allow us to conceive the native country music as a discursive kind of music. Aiming at the above objectives, the Discourse Analysis proved to be an adequate method, because its relation with Linguistic, Psychoanalysis and History, made it possible for us to explore the language and the discourse, linking them to social-historic factors
