RESUMO:
This research investigates different forms of manifestation of the multiple voices existing in a text, that is to say, the forms of shown heterogeneity, concretized in the linguistic materiality, as the drift of the subject enunciating’s negotiation with the other, in Master’s dissertations from the field of Languages and Literature. Thus, it aims to answer the following questions: Which linguistic forms demonstrate how the researchers negotiate with other voices during the dissertations writing process? What are the strategies chosen by the researchers in the negotiation with the others’ voices inserted in their texts? Which effects of meaning could be constructed as a result of the ways how those voices are managed by the researchers in the academic-scientific production? Which educational intervention methods may arise from the research’s findings, concerning the improvement of the teaching of academic-scientific texts writing? On the basis of those enquiries, the following objectives were stablished: identify and describe the most recurrent linguistic forms, that reveal how the researchers negotiate with the others’ voices in Master’s dissertations; determine strategies employed by the researchers when negotiating with the others’ voices inscribed in their texts; interpret the effects of meaning that the employment of those linguistic forms in the enunciation cause in the researchers’ writing; and, discover more efficient ways for educational intervention, to be applied in the process of writing production during undergraduate courses, in order to improve their quality. To achieve those purposes, a qualitative research of descriptive and interpretative character was carried out, given that the analysis touches, firstly, the restricted limit of the linguistic forms to, secondly, approach the ways of organization and functioning of the academic-scientific text. The theoretical basis rests on some conceptual postulates from enunciative heterogeneity (AUTHIER-REVUZ, 1990, 1998, 2004, 2011), dialogism (BAKHTIN, 2000, 2009) and interdiscourse (PÊCHEUX, 1990, 1997). It is also based on the principles of the formation of the scientific mind (BACHELARD, 1996). The corpus is composed of 18 dissertations, produced from 2006 to 2014, in Brazilian federal universities’ graduate courses from the field of Languages and Literature. All the dissertations were taken from CAPES Public Domain Web Portal. In this corpus, the primary observed chapters were the one of theoretic-methodological construction and the one of data analysis. By means of the analysis carried out, it is possible to conclude that the researchers use many writing strategies: they follow the same syntactical structure of a source-text; they construct their own utterances with parts of the other’s discourse, undergoing small modifications, caused, often, by the words’ substitutions, changing only the semantic structure; and, they rely on a source-text, changing only the sequence of the utterances, keeping the others’ words in integrity, even, sometimes, depriving their own discourse – the one of enunciator/ researcher – from its characteristics. In conclusion, the excerpts analyzed in this research allow the view of an attempt of the researcher’s negotiation with the others’ voices employed as theoretical background, however there was also noticed a certain lack of mastership in the use of such strategy. The research also shows, alternatively, that it is possible to achieve an improvement in the quality of the academic-scientific text production, in a teaching context that focuses on the ways of the others’ voices insertion, what also works as orientation to the researcher to learn to move from the common sense, putting something from the self in the texts that writes.
