Abstract/Résumé/Resumen
The impact of new technologies on the processes of scientific communication has been generating new needs of investigation on the documental processing. In the research field of Literature and History, the Information Systems do not meet the needs of the increasing and more specific demand. The chronicle has great importance for research under several aspects, also for its thematic. However, its analysis can be a complex matter, because it’s not possible to propose a simple textual analysis for the chronicle, which demands an integral documentary reading. Starting from literature revision, from an investigation of the nature of chronicle and the documentary analysis in its constituent phases, the Information representation in the documental processing of Carlos Drummond de Andrade's chronicles collection, published in the Jornal do Brasil, made in a unit of specialized Information, has been analyzed. Thus, theoretical and methodological fundamentation is sought for the treatment of journalistic chronicles, in order to improve its documentary analysis and the assistance to users.
