Abstract

The goal of this paper is to conduct and present analyses of some specific aspects of comic strips with children’s characters. Observing that the strips which represent children relate them to stereotypes, we argue that the basic stereotype that functions in the one represented by a naïve child. Such stereotype will be understood as a generator principle of the discourse of the strips. In order to investigate the stereotype, it will be crucial to observe the aspect of the non-correspondence in the talk of the children’s characters (when there is incongruence in the use of some word or utterance).
