Análisis pragmalingüístico de la reformulación en el microdiscurso ‘resumen’ del área científico-técnica de la revista Maskana de la Universidad de Cuenca

Abstract

The present research aims to study the micro-discourse abstract of the scientific article that, from the genre perspective, should be understood as an independent text (micro-text), whose purpose is to synthesize the superstructure of the scientific article (IMRyD) to persuade that the reader culminates with the total content of the article. This research focuses on the use of reformulation markers, the purpose of which is to demonstrate that the sender, the articulist, considers that he has not transmitted, satisfactorily, his communicative intention, that he is not sure of communicating the scientific phenomenon, so which reformulates it again. It should be added that the abstract, as it belongs to a scientific-technical genre, does not require the use of reformulations that contribute to its purpose, hence the importance of this study. For this reason, our objective is focused on analyzing not only the semantic relations, but also the functional relations established by the presence of the reformulator in the summary micro-discourse of the scientific article of the journal Maskana, from a pragmalinguistic approach.
