MONTE, V. M. M. Seventeenth century documents: Semidiplomatic edition and sibilant treatment. 2007. 395p. Dissertation (Master degree) – Faculdade de Filosofia, Letras e Ciências Humanas, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, 2007. The present dissertation treats of the semidiplomatic edition of documents dated from the second half of the 18th century and conserved at the Arquivo Histórico Nacional – Rio de Janeiro and it proposes a study of the sibilant treatment in this corpus. The paper has two general objectives: the first, related to the purpose of Philology as a discipline, which is the publishing of a faithful and reliable edition of the set of nine documents that constitute a source for the study of Brazilian history as well as for the study of the history of the language, once the presented edition preservs the linguistic traces of the documents. The second objective is to study the treatment given to the sibilant in 18th century documents. In the first part, it is presented a philological study which comprehends a codicological and a paleographical analysis of the manuscripts. The codicological analysis describes for each set of documents: the employed support, with information about the brand, waterlines and filigrees; its composition with the quantity and dimensions of the folio, as well as its structure; the page organization, with the number of lines, ways of numbering and localization of the catchwords; date, place of origin, particularities and contents. The paleographical analysis refers to the study of the graphematic variation found in the documents and the criteria for the establishment of the graphema used to represent the sibilants. At the end of the first part, it is presented the semidiplomatic edition of the manuscripts, followed by the fac-simile. In the second part of this work it is presented the methodology for the sibilant surveying in the corpus, a study of the sibilant phonemes since the origin of the Portuguese Language until the first official norm which came out in 1911; the norm proclaimed by the orthographers of that century; the discussion about the existence of an official ortographical rule in Portugal in the 18th century and the corpus data analysis. It is noticed that the graphemes ç e z are preferred by the authors to represent, respectively the voiceless sibilant and the voiced sibilant. Such fact seems to be related to the reduction of the four sibilants into only two in the standard Portuguese, since such graphemes were used to represent the predorsals sibilant consonants, which remained in the standard language. It is proved that the difficulty of the orthographers elaborating a rule for the use of s and z is in accordance to the confusion between these graphemes observed in the manuscripts.Two important conclusions can be related to the first part of this dissertation. The first one is that it’s not possible to elaborate a faithful and reliable edition leaving aside a philological study which fullfill both codicological and paleographical analyses. The second, related to the paleography, demonstrates that the determination of a grapheme doesn’t depend only on the morphology of the letter, which compared to other occurrences inside the same handwriting, will reveal the best reading, but it also depends on the study of the occurrences in specific contexts of silabic position.
