Abstract

KONDRATIUK, Carolina. THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS OF TRANSCREATION: FROM CONCRETE POETRY TO BIOGRAPHICAL RESEARCH. Revista LES [online]. 2024, vol.28, n.57, 5417.  Epub Apr 03, 2025. ISSN 2526-8449.  https://doi.org/10.26694/rles.v28i57.5417.

The article focuses on transcreation, with the aim of exploring the developments made possible by this theoretical and methodological tool in the development of sensitive scientific writing in biographical research. To this end, it presents a brief genealogy of the concept, organised into three moments: its origins in the field of literature, its re-signification in the field of oral history and its current scope in the context of biographical research in education. Retracing the notion from its roots in Brazilian poetry, the article highlights the theoretical and methodological contributions of transcreation to be explored in the field of biographical research in education, life stories and narrative research. Both a self-medial practice and a sensitive scientific writing procedure, transcreation carries promising potential for understanding and favouring the processes of auto and heterobiographical formation that come into play when subjects narrate and write about themselves, sharing stories and constructing meanings from their experience of existing in the world.

Keywords : Transcreation; biographical research; sensitive scientific writing; auto/heterobiography..
