The title that comprises the section that you will have at your disposal from now on seems to offer us the necessary clues to understand the reason for a space like this: textual genres. Yes, textual genres, as they are, materially speaking, the great representatives of so many communicative situations that guide our daily lives. However, there is still another aspect that also instigates us and induces us to conceive of them as relevant: the orality.
Dear user, participants, members of life in society, different are the positions we have to assume through, solely and exclusively, orality. In this way, such circumstances are not restricted only to the act of speaking, itself, on the contrary, they extend to the school universe and especially, to academic, in which it gains even more notoriety.
Thus, debates, seminars, among others, widely permeate these environments and it is not, believe me, just the act of verbalizing about a a given subject, it is, above all, a planning, a certain "obedience" to structures, to taking planned attitudes, taking into account consideration of how to behave, the bodily expressions to use, the clothing to adopt, finally, there are many particularities that guide this kind of
communicative circumstance. And you, don't worry, as soon as you will establish familiarity with all of them, so that you know how to behave, and in doing so, plausibly play the roles that will be given to you.Do not stop now... There's more after the advertising ;)
But the relevant points do not stop there, they, however, go a little further, because here, exactly here, the so-called textual genres linked to the citizenship. Citizenship because your situation is that of someone who is entitled (within the standards, obviously) to claim, to complain, to request. Thus, it is precisely in this sense that you will find a little more about the petition, the manifesto, the open letter, well... the other genres... you will find out, but only when you want to make use, and good, par excellence, of everything we have prepared here for you!!!
