SUMMARY:

This work aims to analyze how the printed advertising media in Natal-RN has promoted (or not) the accessibility and autonomy of the visually impaired person, with emphasis on the presence of the Braille system as a communicational resource. It presents hypotheses that the discourse of the printed advertising media tends to (in) visibilize or stereotype the visually impaired person; the absence of resources such as Braille is also a discursive expression of symbolic exclusion; When present, accessible advertising discourse can contribute to strengthening the autonomy and citizenship of this population. It shows that technology offers several possibilities of accessibility for people with visual impairments, but there is still a gap in the processes of reading and writing braille. This gap is an important social issue for blind people, because it implies the construction of their autonomy and access to what is daily disseminated by the printed advertising media. To this end, it uses documentary research and interviews as methodologies for constituting the corpus. The theoretical foundation comes from Foucault (2008, 2011), Charaudeau (2019), Maingueneau (2015), Pimentel Filho (2020), Bourdieu (2011), Le Breton (2016), Goffman (2022) and reading of Law 13.146/2015, among others. It analyzes material that the printed advertising media uses, such as pamphlets. It considers studies developed in the area of Media Communication and in the line of research Media Studies and Production of Meaning.
