Evaluation of a methodological proposal for the documental analysis of narrative fiction texts

Abstract

At the moment that the Documental Analysis "row material" consists of narrative fiction texts, the complexity increases considerably, because the methodological model of concepts identification made to scientific texts do not apply to these texts. Damazo (2006) with a view to contribute theoretically with the development of a method that facilitates the subjects survey task of narrative fiction texts, in its aspects of identification and election of concepts, searched for theoretical subsidies in areas of interface with the Information Science, more specifically the Linguistics, and got as results the identification of main and secondary subjects in the analyzed texts and, thus she considered that the phases of manipulation and sanction of the Canonic Sequence contemplate the subject localization in the structure of the narrative fiction text. So, this study had the objective of investigating the applicability of the Generative Sense Course utilization as methodology of analysis for the subject identification of narrative fiction texts and, thus, to inquire the hypothesis presented by Damazo (2006). As methodological procedure, we started from the analysis of the Final Thesis carried out in 2006 that used the identification of such sequence as methodology of analysis for the subject identification of narrative fiction texts. As result, was given the evidence of the possibility of identifying the general subject of analyzed narrative fiction texts, and to conclude wih the confirmation of the hypothesis presented by Damazo (2006).
