Abstracto
El objetivo del presente estudio es comparar el resumen de artículos de investigación científica (AICs) de dos disciplinas (Biología e Historia) a partir de su organización retórica y de las relaciones de coherencia que lo configuran. Para describir la organización retórica, utilizamos, como taxonomía de arranque, la propuesta de Hyland, Ken. 2000. Disciplinary discourse: Social interactions in academic writing. London: Longman.Google Scholar logo with link to Google Scholar, mientras que para las relaciones de coherencia, utilizamos la propuesta de Ibáñez, Romualdo, Fernando Moncada y Andrea Santana. 2015. “Variación disciplinar en el discurso académico de la biología y del derecho: Un estudio a partir de las relaciones de coherencia”. Revista Onomázein 2(32): 101–131. Google Scholar logo with link to Google Scholar. El corpus de esta investigación estuvo constituido por 160 resúmenes escritos en español, pertenecientes a AICs publicados en revistas especializadas. Los resultados revelan que mientras ciertas movidas son obligatorias en los resúmenes de una disciplina, en los de la otra son opcionales. También se observa que los resúmenes de ambas disciplinas se diferencian en sus configuraciones retóricas prototípicas, al igual que en las relaciones de coherencia más frecuentes.
