SILVA, Adriana Pozzani de La Vielle e. Crystal words: subject, meaning and versions in the discursive process of books reformulation. Ling. (dis)curso (Impr.) [online]. 2010, vol.10, n.2, pp. 251-273. ISSN 1518-7632.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1518-76322010000200002.

The theoretical field of Discourse Analysis stands at the basis of the present discussion on the discursive process for reformulation of books. By focusing on the axis subject-meaning-versions - with a punctual emphasis on the socio-historical mechanisms, which constitute the work of authorship -, here one tries to make explicit how the enunciative event (INDURSKY, 2008), once it is responsible for the emergence of the so called "revised edition," affects the enunciable proper to a certain discursive formation, and reconfigures the memory networks. The subject-author, caught within the web of historical contradictions in which he constitutes himself, enters in a play of repeat-dislocate-forget. The reflection here developed acquires an overtone when the polemical identity of the "revised edition" is dealt with at the final considerations.
