“…), qual o papel da linguagem em nossas interações, de que canais e meios dispomos ao fazer uso da linguagem. Estamos, portanto, diante de uma abordagem para o estudo e descrição da linguagem que prioriza a correlação sistemática, mas probabilística, entre texto e contexto: o texto traz em si um contexto e do primeiro pode-se deduzir o segundo; o contexto permite prever como os significados manifestos no texto estarão linguisticamente representados (Eggins & Martin, 1996). Esta correlação também nos permite dois caminhos metodológicos, um ascendente -do texto para o contexto-e outro descendente.…”

“…For example Eggins and Martin (1997) comment on a public talk given by Chomsky and refer to this text as having the purpose of 'delivering social commentary' or simply 'stirring'. Such purposes are definitely different from the purposes of text types mentioned above and closer to what Swales to some extent seems to understand by 'communicative purposes'.…”

Language is a multiplicity of meaning-making systems, which are connected with social, cultural and psychological networks. Focusing on issues of power, this article is concerned to explore how the readings of a European folktale triggered attempts among teenage girls in Hong Kong to make their own feminist and subversive interpretations in English. The reconstructed stories are more than a partial reproduction of the conventional text, they are also a useful reflection of the teenage girls' literacy and gender experience, as well as of their generic and social knowledge. With a resistance to textual conventions, the teenage girls demonstrate their written competence to create alternative subject and reading positions, which are textually motivated by their sense of difference. The material realisation of the stories is also characterised by splits and instabilities, in the negotiation of a new boundary for femininity. This negotiation demonstrates how the teenage girls are on the move, facing and settling contradictory possibilities in acquiring literacy and social roles. Along these lines of observation, the synchronic view of language, characterised by regularity and internal consistency, needs to be challenged in second-language writing instruction.
