A representação arquivística na tradição canadense: subsídios para elaboração de um modelo ideal de ensino por meio da semântica textual.

It presents a study relating Linguistics and Archival Science through semantics and Archival Representation. The general objective was to contribute to the construction of a theoretical and methodological reference regarding the Archival Representation in the Canadian context, aiming the creation of a teaching model based on textual semantics, and its specific objectives were to analyze research instruments of two Canadian institutions; to observe the linguistic analysis criteria established for this research, in these instruments; compare the approaches in representation in the two selected institutions. The method used to achieve these objectives is characterized by being an exploratory, theoretical and documentary study, having the semantic and textual construction criteria of meaning and constituent elements of textual coherence and cohesion as a methodology of analysis for understanding the paths of Archival Representation in the research tools of the Canadian Archives - Library and Archives Canada (LAC) and Provincial Archives of Manitoba.
