Abstract

This paper investigates the text revisers training process who work specifically in Minas Gerais, based on their conceptions of both text and text revision. Questionnaires were applied to 31 revisers in order to collect data. The data analysis was based on the theoretical framework of Textual Linguistics, which enabled the establishment of a concept of text and revision that better meets the proposal of this research. Outcomes pointed to the need of thinking the text reviser training through a transdisciplinary approach, which would surpass the borders of normative grammar and encompass text revision task in a closer way to the revisers’ routine.
