SUMMARY:

In this research, it is sought to understand the manifestation of authorship and the author role in a textbook of Portuguese as a foreign language. To this end, the graphic-editorial projects of five Portuguese textbooks for foreigners are analyzed: Bons Negócios – Português do Brasil para o mundo do trabalho, Falar...Ler...Escrever...Português: um curso para estrangeiros, Samba!: curso de língua portuguesa para estrangeiros, Novo Avenida Brasil 1: curso básico de português para estrangeiro and Muito Prazer: fale o português do Brasil – Livro 1. Two categories of analysis were defined: i) a presence that can be seen and ii) an absence that is noticed. In the first, a presence that can be seen, the paratextual elements of the corpus in which the authorial manifestation is visible are considered, while in the second, an absence that is noticed, the paratextual elements in which the absence of authorial marks is notable are discussed. The research also proposes a discussion about the development of the notion of authorship in our culture, seeking to understand what the author's authority is today, and it carries out a theoretical overview of the conception and use of central components in a graphic-editorial project, such as design of the work and the editorial paratexts. As a theoretical foundation, the studies of Michel Foucault, Roger Chartier, Richard Hendel, Eliana Muzzi and Gerard Genette are employed. In this way, a fruitful dialogue is established between: authorship and the author role, Portuguese textbooks for foreigners and graphic-editorial design. It was found that both the presence and absence of authorship marks assume a strategic place in each publication, that there are different types of authorship performed in a textbook of Portuguese as a foreign language, given its collaborative nature of production, and that the strengthening of these authorial instances occurs in particular ways, sometimes graphically, sometimes textually, sometimes personally, sometimes institutionally.
