Abstract

serious genres are updated and act as ingredients for new genres that arise all the time, due to the urge for new communication and expression.  Among these compositions are the humorous products “Live do Corona” (2020a), “Segunda onda” (2020b) and “Mutação do Corona” (2021), transmitted by the channel "Embrulha para viagem" exclusively available on digital platforms such as YouTube and Instagran. Based on the theories Bakhtin’s Circle to analyze the issues of gender and enunciation, in Henri Bergson and Sírio Possenti to discuss about humor, we intend to examine to what gender these objects belong, what aesthetic resources they are constituted in how the humor and criticism are produced by the enunciative-discursive strategies inscribed in them. It is concluded that the selected objects maintain intrinsic relations with the menipeia satire (taken here according to the foundations of Mikhail Bakhtin) and appear in contemporaneity inscribed under other gender designations.
