Descrição
Resumo:In this study, which focuses on the communication between physicians and patients in medical consultation contexts, we analyze the retextualization activities used by patients in the process of (re)readings of the discursive medical prescription genre. The following question arises: What retextualization forms or strategies do patients use to understand the prescription? From the methodological point of view, it is a study of a qualitative approach, carried out through the bibliographic method, supported by the dialogical conception of Bakhtin’s language (2011 [1979]); as well as Marcuschi (2010a [2001]), when dealing with retextualization; and Adam (1992), Bronckart (2008/2012) and Dolz and Schneuwly (2004), on discursive genres. And also, field research, carried out in three Basic Health Units (BHUs), where the medical prescriptions that make up the corpus presented in this study were recorded. The analyzes guide some conclusions: i) the strategies and / or mechanisms for retextualizing the medical recipes that patients are involved, constitute an ideological continuum of organization of the modalities of use of the language (oral or written), mediated by the textual genres; and ii) understanding, which encompasses the whole process, both during consultation and outside it, is therefore through interactive and dialogical practices, in which the social literacy of each subject enables them to re-signify social roles and practices in the world.
