A escrita acadêmica em foco: processos de retextualização em monografias de ciências sociais e letras.

Abstract

This paper discusses academic writing and investigates retextualization processes in the monograph genre. The work considers the notions that a) this genre is validated by its institutional power to authorize the conclusion of Undergraduate and Specialization Courses and b) it is written from research questions put in the introduction and resumed throughout the text. Thus, it sought to answer the question: How do retextualization processes validate the written production of monographs? Therefore, it examined six cases of this genre, resultant from the Degrees in Letras and in Social Sciences. The results obtained point to the identification of internal retextualization processes of adaptation, recasting and argumentation, all of them mobilized in the target section data analysis.
