PASTENE-LABRIN, Federico. Text Intersections between the Biblical Discourse and the Political Discourse in the Genre of Opinion Pieces: Clues to Process. Signo pensam. [online]. 2018, vol.37, n.72, pp.34-44. ISSN 0120-4823.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.syp37-72.ctdb.

This article addresses some text intersections between the Biblical and political discourses taking place in the journalistic discursive genre of ‘Opinion Piece', based on a contingent political and news event like the “Caval Case”, which involved the Chilean presidential family and brought about diverse understandings. thee methodology consists in the text analysis of an opinion piece published in a Chilean national newspaper under a discursive and contextual approach. the piece was titled the Son's Sacrifice. the noticeable results from the analysis include: i) when processing the text, the reader must activate diverse intertexts that reflect a complex text modelling entanglement, which resorts to -and undoubtedly challenges- the cultural competence in the receiver; ii) text intersection in the opinion piece becomes a discursive strategy whereby the enunciator subject evaluates both critically and ironically a political event in which power, public opinion and justice are confronted. In summary, the use of these procedures enriches the textuality and genre form of an opinion journalistic text.
