| Abstract | |
Through the historiographic approach, this work aimed to put the relationship between missionaries, scientists and travelers of the western tradition and the Indians populations in dialogical terms. Looking the historiographical grammatical representation elaborated by the European about the Indian language, we assumed that it´s possible to see the negotiation of senses between these two worlds. Our material was formed, basically, by the Tupi grammars elaborated between centuries XVI XIX. They are: Anchieta 1595, Figueira 1621, Anônimo séc. XVIII, Faria 1858, Sympson 1877, Hartt 1938 [1872], Couto de Magalhães 1975 [1876] Luccock 1880 and Stradelli 1929. As a formal object, we took the historiography of the terms classified by the authors, in their metalinguistic method, as possessive. The metalinguistic system about this conception seems to be an adequate place of observation inas much as it was a divergent cultural aspect between the western and Indian traditions. (AU) | |
