Abstract
SILVA, Marcos Alves da; BALDISSERA, Leonardo and MOREIRA JUNIOR, Luiz Carlos. FROM INVESTIGATION TO DISCOVERY IN UMBERTO ECO: A LOOK AND REFLECTION ON CURRENT RESEARCH. Revista Internacional CONSINTER de Direito [online]. 2019, n.8, pp.71-84. Epub June 28, 2019. ISSN 2183-6396. https://doi.org/10.19135/revista.consinter.00008.04.
This paper deals with a study on the work How to make a thesis, of the author Umberto Eco, based on a methodological and epistemological path that the book itself presents, especially when discussing the scientificity of the thesis, in order to develop a reflective and critic look on the current researches. The script itself has a way to investigate the discovery of the thesis, as research, by the guidance aided by its mentor. Although the context of the work was the academic scenario of the 70's in Italy, there is no way to ignore the methodological contributions and the epistemological conflicts that exist in the book, creating a counterpoint to the development of research nowadays. The ironic advice of the author contribute to a clash of academic reality, highlighting the contribution that the thesis can offer to the honest exercise of the research intellect.
