Hacia un modelo de representación documental: la técnica de resumir

Abstract

BEGINNING WITH THE DEFINITION OF SUMMARIZATION AND THE DOCUMENTARY IMPORTANCE OF SUMMARY, THE IMPLICIT STEPS OF THE PRO CESS ARE OUTLINED: THE SELECTION OF THE DOCUMENT, THE ESTABLISHMENT OF OBJECTIVES, THE PROCESS ITSELF, AND THE EVALUATION. THOUGHT IS GIVEN TO THE FIRST PHASE (READING), ITS IMPORTANCE, TYPOLOGIES AND PROCEDURES. THE SECOND PHASE (ANALYSIS) IS VERY CONDITIONED BY LINGUISTICS, WHO SE POSTULATES LEAD TO A NEW ENTITY, THE TEXT, AS A RESULT OF A PROCESS OF SYNTHESIS- EXPANSION, THE OPPOSITE OF ANALYTIC PRO CESS, THAT TRANSFORMS EVERY PROFOUND CONCEPTUAL STRUCTURE INTO ITS LINGUISTIC OR SUPERFICIAL EQUIVALENT. THE CONCEPT OF MICROSTRUCTURE IS ESTABLISHED, WHICH IS IDENTIFIABLE WITH THAT OF THE SUMMARY, AS ARE THE NECESSARY STEPS TO OBTAIN IT, KEEPING IN MIND CERTAIN LINGUISTIC AND META LINGUISTIC ASPECTS. THE THIRD PHASE OF SYNTHESIS OR TRANSFORMATION, IS THE MOST DELICATE AND CREATIVE. IT CONSISTS OF TWO FUNDAMENTAL MECHANISMS: FORMULATION AND AS SIMILATION. CERTAIN RECOMMENDATIONS ARE GIVEN REGARDING CLARIFICATION, REORGANIZATION AND STYLE, ACCORDING TO CRITERIA OF FAITHFUL NESS, CLARITY, PRECISION AND ENTROPY. IN SPITE OF THESE, THERE IS MUCH WORK TO DO BEFORE A VERY NEEDED THEORY OF DOCUMENTARY REPRESENTATION IS ACHIEVED.
