A REVISÃO TEXTUAL NAS LICENCIATURAS EM LETRAS PORTUGUÊS: UMA ANÁLISE DOCUMENTAL EM PROJETOS PEDAGÓGICOS

Abstract

The general objective of this study was to analyze the role of text revision in the curriculum of undergraduate courses in Portuguese Language and Literature. The specific objectives were to characterize how text revision is trained and to discuss how text revision is developed in the Pedagogical Projects of undergraduate courses in Portuguese Language and Literature. In order to achieve the objectives listed, documentary (Gil, 2008; Severino, 2013) and qualitative (Bortoni-Ricardo, 2015) research was carried out. The corpus of this research consists of 27 Pedagogical Projects of Portuguese Language and Literature courses (PPC), one from each state of Brazil and one from the Federal District, in which it was analyzed how the text revision and/or text revision were approached. The literature review that underpins the discussion of the skills, abilities and duties of the proofreader is composed of Guilherme (1967), Pinto (1993), Malta (2000), Oliveira (2007; 2016), Coelho Neto (2008; 2017), Coelho and Antunes (2010), Lemos (2014a; 2014b), Nascimento (2014), Barbosa (2017), Volkweis (2020), Nascimento (2024) among others. It was established that text revision, despite being mentioned in the PPC, is still little developed in undergraduate courses in Portuguese Language and Literature, because, although there is the possibility of working in this area, this is a skill little worked on in curricular components, especially with regard to practice, not covering the complexity of this work that goes beyond grammatical correction and knowledge of the Portuguese language.
