Resumen

Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) emerged as one of the most impactful diseases of the 20th century, triggering a global health crisis and significantly altering the lives of millions of people around the world. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, HIV/AIDS reached epidemic status, and the Brazilian media played a key role in constructing discourses related to this disease. The aim of this study is to analyze the discourses present in the São Paulo newspaper O Pasquim in relation to HIV/AIDS and what is now known as the LGBTQIAPN+ community, in order to understand the discursive formation of the subjects with the disease, using discourse analysis interspersed with gender studies.
