Escrita acadêmica: a resenha como produto de retextualização

In this research paper, the academic review is considered as a product of retextualization. Anchored in Marcuschi (2010) and Matencio (2002), the retextualization is understood as a process of transformation of one text into another, involving linguistic, textual, discursive and cognitive aspects. Thereby, we intend to describe the textual and discursive operations involved in the process of retextualization of a short film for the writing of an academic review. For this, we will use an academic review written by two university students, and their procedural data, from the short film Vida Maria. The analysis pointed out that, in the review which was analyzed, our subjects had established a relation with the short film, at the same time that they positioned themselves as reviewers of the composition, maintaining, therefore, a link between the rhetorical structure of the genre and with the text-base.
