LIBRAS INTERPRETER IN THE POST-GRADUATION CONTEXT: A LOOK AT THE GENRE OF DISCOURSE

Abstract

Our objective is to analyze the interpretation of sign language in the educational sphere, in the context of post-graduation lato sensu, focusing on the specificities of the genre of discourse. Thus, we present as research questions: What characteristics of the discursive genre emerge in the performance of the Educational Interpreter? What statements reveal and characterize the genre of discourse in graduate studies based on the performance of the interpreter? Following Bakhtinian and Circle thinking, reflections and studies on the educational interpreter, we conceive of interpretation as a discursive process, in which the performance of interpreters with students depends on the context in which they are inserted. We consider that the performance of educational interpreters is governed by genre’s coercions and, therefore, translation decisions, language style, modes of interpretation and forms of interaction are related to the specific context in which they operate.
