No？？es de coes？o textual na produ？？o escrita de formandos do curso de Letras

this work aims to verify how the concept of textual cohesion is manifested in the written production of undergraduate language students. the corpus under analysis is constituted of 210 texts written by students from public and private brazilian universities when answering the question of linguistics and portuguese test from the national courses examination in 2001. it is theoretically supported by bakhtinian’s concept of dialogic interactionism and by authier-revuz concept of enunciative heterogeneity, based on the idea that the students’ discourse is historically and socially constructed. the results reveal that the forms of manifestation of textual cohesion notions occur by means of marks related to the marked and unmarked heterogeneity concept based on a traditional view of language.
