Abstract

Academic writing has received many studies since the late 1970s, but there are some speech genres that bring difficulties to college students, such as the review. The objective of the article is to discuss this production of undergraduate students of Languages and Linguistics, from the Bakhtinian conception of discursive genres and point of view, according to Rabatel (2015, 2016, 2016a, 2017, 2018), which means to treat the reviews within a context of circulation, production and reception. In the first part, we will introduce the theoretical assumptions that guide this discussion, particularly the notion of review as a discursive genre. In the second part, considering the category of the point of view (POV) as intrinsic to the linguistic, textual, discursive and enunciative organization of the academic review, we will focus on some theoretical notions followed by data analysis, which will anchor our reflection. The analysis of an academic review published in an undergraduate academic journal revealed that L1 / E1 engaged with the object of discourse, when constructing the point of view (POV), certainly, to influence the interlocutors about the work reviewed. In short, the nature of the communicative purpose of the discursive genre review leads L1 / E1 to assume a favorable POV or not.
