Resumo: The existence of newspaper clippings in archives, especially the socalled personal archives, challenges the archivists in theoretical and practical ways. Also, it allows us to presume that the accumulation of snippets reflects a social practice incipiently studied. This paper pursues the origins of that social practice and examines its multiple manifestations in the archives by an exploratory study based on literature review and documentary research. The literature review pointed-out the connection between the social practice of accumulating newspaper cuttings and the large, rich tradition of the scrapbooks, which seems to meet individuals’ informational needs, the materialization of emotional bonds, and the building of cultural capital. The samples from documentary research highlighted the functional attributes determined by the contexts in which the snippets were accumulated and used by individuals. On the one hand, these attributes endorse archival processing grounded in the principles and procedures of Archival Science. On the other hand, they emphasize the relevance of studying the documentary forms in dialogue with other disciplines such as Diplomatics, Communication Studies, Theory of Journalism, and Linguistics.

Neste artigo, procuramos traçar a origem desta prática social e examinar suas várias manifestações nos arquivos. Trata-se de estudo exploratório, lastreado por revisão de literatura e fundamentado em pesquisa documental. A revisão da literatura aponta para a conexão entre a prática de acumulação de recortes e uma longa e rica tradição de produção de scrapbooks, que vai de encontro às necessidades informacionais dos indivíduos, à materialização dos laços afetivos e à acumulação de capital cultural. Na pesquisa documental, os exemplos extraídos de arquivos pessoais revelam os atributos funcionais adquiridos pelos recortes quando fazem parte de um fundo, determinados pelos contextos de acumulação e uso. Por fim, demonstramos como tais atributos credenciam os recortes de jornal como documentos passíveis de tratamento ancorado nos princípios e procedimentos próprios da Arquivologia, reforçando a primazia do contexto sobre o conteúdo e a importância da definição das espécies e tipos documentais, para o que se faz necessário o diálogo com outros campos disciplinares, entre os quais a Diplomática, as Ciências da Comunicação, a Teoria do Jornalismo e a Linguística.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Faculdade de Biblioteconomia e Comunicação, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência da Informação (Porto Alegre/RS)2021-03-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/10411210.19132/1808-5245272.52-75Em Questão; v. 27, n. 2, abr./jun. 2021; 52-75Em Questão; v. 27, n. 2, abr./jun. 2021; 52-75Em Questão; v. 27, n. 2, abr./jun. 2021; 52-751808-52451807-8893reponame:Em Questão (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/104112/60671Copyright (c) 2021 José Francisco Guelfi Camposhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCampos, José Francisco Guelfi2023-11-30T15:14:31Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/104112Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/emquestao/PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/EmQuestao/oaiemquestao@ufrgs.br||emquestao@ufrgs.br1808-52451807-8893opendoar:2023-11-30T15:14:31Em Questão (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
