ZILBERBERG, Claude. Chords and discordant in Heredia's The Conquerors. Tóp. Sem [online]. 2013, n.30, pp.119-136. ISSN 2594-0619.

Taking as point of departure the categories that belong to the tensive hypothesis (semiotic modes, values and valences), it is possible to describe the evolution of an admitted opposition. In Heredia's sonnet The Conquerors, the tension between the thematic roles of the conqueror and the viewer, the first guided by the getting to, the second by the supervening, the disagreement between the thematic roles is progressively blurred. This vanishment establishes the dominance of the getting to in detriment of the supervening.

Keywords : semiotic modes; evolution; getting to; supervening; blurred opposition.
