• Abstract:

  The article presents a critical analysis of a bibliographic/qualitative design that aims to understand Foucault's vision in the digital era, based on his approach to language and communication expressed in the work “As Palavras e as coisas” (1966), more specifically in the chapter I, entitled “As meninas”. In the aforementioned work, Foucault dedicates himself to interpreting the concrete elements of the oil painting by the artist Diego Velásques, where, based on the objectivity of what is displayed on the canvas, he constructs disturbing subjective links that reveal much beyond what is concretely portrayed. Once the problem raised by Foucault is exposed, and using authors endorsed in the area of communication and its developments, such as John B. Thompson and V. Ongaro, it becomes possible in a real and effective way, the displacement of Foucault's analysis to the current context in addition to highlighting its importance for tackling issues related to language, communication and exposure of individuals in this relationship. In summary, Foucault's analysis remains objectively evident that communication, despite being essential, can be characterized as a trap for the individual and for the social construction that is intended.
