The being-author: shifts between scientific writing and self-writing

Este artigo propõe uma reflexão, sustentada na teoria da Análise de Discurso, sobre a escrita científica e o seu imaginário de objetividade, a fim de pensar se há um espaço para o singular do pesquisador-autor na produção científica. A partir disso, discute-se a possibilidade de tomar a escrita científica como uma escritura de si, mostrando os elementos que estão em jogo no processo de escritura e suas relações com a subjetividade e com a constituição do ser-autor.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Escrita Científica. Escrita de Si. Autoria. Análise de Discurso.
